Barcelona FC news

Barcelona star Raphinha has been ruled out of action for five weeks with a hamstring injury picked up on international duty with Brazil in what’s a huge blow to club and player.

Ronald Araujo has admitted it’s “very sad” to lose the Brazilian star at a crucial stage in the season and former striker Pau Victor thinks Raphinha will be furious at being sidelined.

“Raphinha’s is one of the most painful losses Barça can have. I haven’t spoken to him, I preferred not to send him any message. Knowing him, he must be devastated and really p*ssed off,” he told Jijantes.

However, Victor is confident that the club can cope without their forward, adding: “Barça have the resources to replace him.”

Victor left the club in the summer for Braga but admits he still watches every game.

“I don’t miss a Barça game, I’m a Barça player and I’m not going to miss them. Here they tell me that I am sick because I see them all,”

“Surely the season didn’t start as people expected, Iñigo’s loss did a lot of damage. Now I see the team very well. You can ask for little more, they are competing well and I know they are good in the dressing room.”

Marc Cucurella has been talking about Barcelona while on international duty with Spain and made it pretty clear he would be tempted to return if the Catalans came knocking.

“It is clear if that situation [Barcelona making an offer] did arise, it is hard to turn down, but I would have to consider it in the end,” he told reporters.

“It is not just me, I also have to think about my family and together we would have to decide what’s best for us.

“As I have said before, right now I am not thinking about that. If it comes, it will come, and we will see what decision is made.”

Cucurella came through Barcelona’s academy but went on to play for Eibar and Getafe before heading to the Premier League with Brighton and now Chelsea.

There’s been no talk of Barcelona going for Cucurella this summer but might he be a good addition to the squad in an ideal world?

So today’s Barca Blaugranes Question of the Day is:

Would you like to see Marc Cucurella back at Barcelona?

Barcelona are set to have some reinforcements after the international break as Jules Kounde, Alejandro Balde and Frenkie de Jong are all set to return from injury lay-offs.

Kounde and Balde are already back in training with Hansi Flick’s side and are expected to be available for Barcelona’s next match against Atletico Madrid in La Liga on Saturday night.

The news is a boost to Flick and gives the Barcelona coach more options in defence ahead of a busy run of fixtures.

Frenkie de Jong is a little further behind but should be available shortly. He is not expected to be ready for the weekend but is hoping to be passed fit in time for the Champions League quarter-final first leg against Atletico, according to AS.

Marc Bernal has been doing a fine job in De Jong’s absence but may have to make way when the Netherlands international is fit again.

Eric Garcia is also expected to be fully fit when domestic action resumes, leaving only Raphinha and Andreas Christensen still on the sidelines.

Barcelona are currently being linked with a host of center-backs ahead of the summer transfer window in a bid to strengthen their backline.

Alessandro Bastoni appears to be the club’s top choice, while there’s also plenty of talk about Luka Vušković and Micky van de Ven.

Hansi Flick has also used Gerard Martin and Eric Garcia at center-back at times this season, while Jules Kounde prefers the middle but is being used primarily as a right-back these days.

Barcelona also have a decision to make on Andreas Christensen’s future, with speculation flying about that they will offer him a new contract despite his injury problems. There’s also been talk about a possible exit for Ronald Araujo.

All of which means there could be plenty of activity at the back in the summer transfer window.

So today’s Barca Blaugranes Question of the Day is:

Which centre-backs would you like to see in the Barcelona squad for next season?

Barcelona have made some changes at the club after losing promising youngster Dro Fernandez to Paris Saint-Germain in the January transfer window.

Dro’s release clause was just €6 million at the time, although it was reported that PSG did end up paying slightly more for the teenager.

According to Catalunya Radio, Barcelona have now moved to increase the release clauses of their youngsters to prevent a repeat of the Dro saga.

Youth players will start off with a release clause of €6m but that will increase to €8m if they debut in the Youth League and €10m if they play for Barcelona Atletic. A first-team debut will see the clause go to up €15m.

A good example here is Tommy Marqués. He still has a youth team contract but has debuted with Hansi Flick’s side, meaning his release clause has now risen to €15m.

It’s slightly different for those players contracted to Barcelona Atletic. Those players will already have a release clause of €20m, and this will rise relating to their appearances for the reserve team. Five appearances raises it to 25m, 10 to €30m .

If a player reaches 15 games with Barcelona Atletic it becomes €100m. Likewise, if a Barcelona Atletic player features for Hansi Flick’s first team the clause also rises to €100m.

The example given here is Xavi Espart. He has a contract with Barcelona Atletic but has now debuted with the senior team, meaning that (if the report proves accurate) he should now be protected with a hefty release clause.

Marcus Rashford and Joao Cancelo are both on loan at Barcelona and the hope is that an agreement can be reached for both players to continue past the end of the current campaign.

Yet it’s not as easy as all that. Barcelona seemingly don’t want to pay Rashford’s €30 million buy option, while his wage demands are also a problem.

The Catalans are also said to be hoping that they can land Cancelo on a free transfer, but it remains to be seen if that will happen as he still has a year left to run on his deal with Al-Hilal.

With all that in mind, Barcelona are looking at potential alternatives in case Rashford and Cancelo do not stay on at Camp Nou.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Jan Virgili and Andreas Schjelderup are the two forwards that Barcelona will target if Rashford ends up waving goodbye at the end of the campaign.

In defence, Barcelona will look at either Alejandro Grimaldo or Andrea Cambiaso to take over from Cancelo.

Grimaldo’s name has been mentioned regularly over recent seasons and is now seen as a “market opportunity” as he’s coming to the end of his contract, while Cambiaso is a versatile player who can feature on either flank.

Barcelona have reportedly asked Spain not to take any risks at all with Lamine Yamal after losing Raphinha to injury.

Raphinha’s been ruled out for five weeks after picking up a hamstring problem while on international duty with Brazil in what is a huge blow for the Catalans.

According to Diario Sport, Barcelona have been “reassured” by the Spanish Federation that Yamal will be taken care of while he’s away on international duty.

Spain are back in action on Tuesday against Egypt and it will be interesting to see how much game time Yamal is given.

The teenager played 63 minutes against Serbia last week, while manager Luis de la Fuente said before the game that “the best have to play at all times.”

Barcelona and Spain have already clashed over Yamal this season, while Hansi Flick is said to be fuming at seeing Raphinha injured in a meaningless friendly at a crucial stage in the season.

The anticipation of a very busy summer transfer window has thrown the rumor mill into overdrive when it comes to Barcelona, with several names linked with both arrivals and exits at the end of the season.

Much of the focus has been on potential new signings such as Julián Alvarez, Alessandro Bastoni and others, but there’s a feeling that Barça must also make some sales to not only fund their big plans but to also refresh the squad and give Hansi Flick a deeper group with quality options in every position.

Several names have their futures up in the air such as Alejandro Balde, Jules Kounde, Ferran Torres and Ronald Araujo, while the question of whether or not to offer Robert Lewandowski a new contract must also be answered.

So today’s Barca Blaugranes Question of the Day is:

Which Barcelona players do you expect to leave this summer?

Barcelona are reportedly ready to make a contract offer to Robert Lewandowski and are lining up a one-year contract extension for the 37-year-old.

Joan Laporta has already said he would like the veteran striker to stay on and it seems the club are now set to make an offer.

According to Diario Sport, Barcelona will offer a 12-month deal that includes a significant pay-cut but includes several variables.

It’s described as a “good offer” and it’s now up to the Poland international to decide if he wants to continue or look for a new challenge. Sport say Barca “could reduce his fixed salary by almost fifty percent” but include variables relating to goals scored or games played.

Lewandowski has said he’s in no rush to make a decision and is focusing on his football for now. He’s happy with his family in Barca but is thought to have plenty of other offers from around the world.

Asllani’s agent, Ayman Dahmani, says Barcelona have been in touch to talk about a potential transfer.

“Barcelona’s interest in the player is still valid, and there has been contact from the Catalan club,” he told Erem News.

It’s reported that Asllani will only leave Hoffenheim if his release clause – which is said to be around €25-30 million euros – is paid in full.

Asllani has made no secret of the fact that he likes Barca. He was spotted watching the Catalans take on Espanyol in La Liga this season and his social media activity this week has again shown him watching Barca in action.

Barcelona and Hansi Flick have been left fuming by news that Raphinha has been ruled out for five weeks due to an injury sustained while playing for Brazil in a friendly against France in the United States.

According to Diario Sport, there is “total incomprehension” at the situation. The club are furious that Raphinha had to take a “marathon” trip to play a “meaningless” game at a decisive point in the season.

Raphinha has had his injury problems this season and Barca are therefore finding it difficult to understand why he started friendly across the Atlantic for Carlo Ancelotti’s side.

Flick has already been riled by the way some international teams have treated his players this season, and Raphinha’s setback is said to now be “the straw that breaks the camel’s back.”

Barcelona may well receive compensation from FIFA for Raphinha’s injury but that will matter little to the Catalans ahead of some crucial games in La Liga and the Champions League.

Barcelona have been hit with a bad blow over the international break as Raphinha has been ruled out for the next five weeks through injury.

The Brazilian is a crucial player for Hans Flick’s side but has suffered from hamstring issues throughout the campaign and has missed chunks of the season because of the problem.

Raphinha’s latest setback comes at a critical time of the season and may just make Barcelona think about their transfer plans for the summer.

Hansi Flick does have alternatives to Raphinha but there’s absolutely no doubt that when the Brazilian is not in the starting XI, the Catalans look a different animal.

It’s been widely report that Barcelona want a center-back and a center-forward in the next window but might the Catalans now be thinking about another left winger instead?

We still don’t know what will happen with Marcus Rashford this summer, although recent noises have suggested that Barcelona aren’t keen on paying his buy option and Manchester United won’t sanction another loan.

Could Raphinha’s injury issues tempt Barca into signing Rashford permanently after all?

Meanwhile, there’s already been talk of a potential return for Jan Virgili, with the youngster having admitted he will find it difficult to say no if Barca came calling.

Yan Diomande is another left winger who has attracted plenty of attention this season and is expected to move on at the end of the season. If Barca are going to spend big, might Diomande be a good idea?

As Barcelona begin thinking about next season’s squad ahead of what could be a very busy summer transfer window, the future of youngsters such as Roony Bardghji should be carefully considered.

The 20-year-old has had a solid first season at Camp Nou and has always shown glimpses of his talent and potential whenever he’s gotten a chance, but his minutes have been severely limited given he’s Lamine Yamal’s backup and Hansi Flick has always been hesitant to keep the teenage superstar out of the lineup.

Roony has expressed his desire to play more, and it’s worth at least considering the possibility of sending him out on loan to get regular playing time next season. But having depth is always crucial, especially in today’s game, and you never know when injuries are going to hit and a player as talented as Roony could become indispensable at any moment.

So today’s Barca Blaugranes Question of the Day is:

Should Barcelona send Roony Bardghji out on loan next season or give him more game time?

Barcelona are currently sweating on Raphinha’s fitness after seeing the Brazilian replaced at half-time of an international friendly with France on Thursday.

Manager Carlo Ancelotti confirmed afterwards that Raphinha “had a problem” and will now undergo tests, with initial reports claiming that it’s another hamstring problem for the forward.

According to AS, the initial reports that Barcelona have received state that Raphinha has “felt a twinge in his right hamstring, the same muscle that sidelined him for two months earlier this season, and suffered two relapses.”

Raphinha is now facing tests to determine the severity of the problem, with AS already speculating he could be out for a few weeks and miss some key fixtures.

The club’s big worry stems from the fact that it’s the “same muscle that was injured this season” and that hamstring injuries can be notoriously tricky to handle as the risk of recurrence is high.

Raphinha spoke about that earlier in the season, saying he blamed himself for suffering relapses after trying to return to action too quickly.

Barcelona stopper Joan Garcia will have to wait to make his debut for Spain after being left out of the squad for tonight’s friendly with Serbia.

The RFEF have provided the squad numbers for the game against Serbia and there’s no sign of Joan Garcia, while David Raya, Alex Remiro, and Unai Simón are included.

Spain boss Luis de la Fuente named a 27-man squad for the two games over the international break but will pick from just 26 for tonight’s match.

The decision comes as a bit of a surprise, although it’s worth nothing that Garcia has had a bit of a knock recently so it’s possible that has played a part in the decision making.

Garcia will therefore hope he can debut next week when Spain face Egypt in their second friendly of the break before returning back to Barcelona.

Meanwhile, Pau Cubarsi, Pedri, Ferran Torres, Dani Olmo, Lamine Yamal and Fermin Lopez are on the list and could feature later.

Luka Vuskovic’s future is making waves in Germany amid speculation regarding interest from Barcelona ahead of the summer transfer window.

A new update from Sport Bild claims that Barcelona are monitoring the youngster and add that “it’s clear” there have been talks with his agent Pini Zahavi.

The report also highlights how Zahavi also represents both Robert Lewandowski and Hansi Flick and gets on well with Barcelona president Joan Laporta.

Vuskovic has been impressing in the Bundesliga this season and seems to have plenty of admirers. Liverpool, Real Madrid and Chelsea are also believed to be interested, although it’s reported that he would like to play in Spain at some point in his career.

Yet any club wanting to sign Vuskovic will have to dig deep. He’s currently valued at around €60 million, and the feeling is that price may rise if he impresses at World Cup 2026 with Croatia.

The youngster is due to head back to Tottenham at the end of the season when his loan deal ends but there are doubts about his continuity at the club.

Spurs are currently battling relegation after another dismal Premier League campaign, while it’s claimed Vuskovic wasn’t too happy with the fact he was sent out on loan after it was deemed he wouldn’t break into the first team.

Regardless of whether Barca go on to win this season’s La Liga title or the Champions League, the squad still needs to be strengthened in certain areas this summer.

Though it isn’t clear at this point just how much Joan Laporta will have to spend on transfers, if it comes down to it, then replacing Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres as the main striker has to be the priority.

The Polish international has served the club incredibly well since his signing, more than justifying his contract, which ends this summer.

However, Lewy has begun to look jaded in many games this year, and is looking every inch a soon-to-be 38-year-old coming towards the end of his career at the elite level.

Yes, he still knows where the goal is, but unless you’re going to put a chance on a plate for him, he’s going to offer very little in the middle of a rapid front three.

His movement isn’t bad either, he just often looks like he’s wading through treacle when trying to get control of the ball and move away from his marker.

Ferran is a different kettle of fish altogether.

Last season, culers saw a very real glimpse of exactly what The Shark could do when given a run in the side and the confidence of the manager.

He really was excellent in Barca’s run to the Copa del Rey, as well as showing up in every other competition.

The problem for the 26-year-old is that his form has fallen off a cliff again, and the chances that he gobbled up in 2024/25 have consistently been going begging.

So far in 2025/26, the Spaniard has 15 goals and one assist in 36 games in all competitions, though only one league goal since early December.

With his contract up in 2027, this summer would realistically be the last chance for Barca to get any money from a sale and use that as part of any purchase for a replacement.

Who that might be is anyone’s guess, given that there have been strong rumours for some while now that the club are still trying to drive down Marcus Rashford’s price.

As a result of that, thoughts of landing Julian Alvarez surely can’t be considered to be anything other than a pipe dream at this stage.

What is clear, however, is that Barca have a problem when it comes to the No. 9 position and solving it must be a priority this summer.

Premier League interest in Alejandro Balde is said to be growing ahead of the summer transfer window, with plenty of clubs keen on Barcelona’s left-back.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Manchester United, Aston Villa and Manchester City are all admirers of the 22-year-old Barcelona star.

The report cites ‘sources close to the player’ as saying there’s ‘strong interest’ which has been around for some time but no formal offers have yet been made.

Balde’s future seems like it may make a few headlines this summer. It’s previously been reported that he’s not seen as untouchable and that the club would listen to offers.

MD say that Balde isn’t thinking about moving but point out that he will have to start planning for the future shortly, as his contract current at Barcelona only runs until 2028.

Balde is currently out injured but is expected back after the international break along with Jules Kounde and Frenkie de Jong.

Joan Garcia has been in impressive form since joining Barcelona from rivals Espanyol in the summer transfer window.

The goalkeeper has made countless important saves so far and has been asked which he thinks has been his best in Barca colors.

Garcia was in no doubt that his stop against former team-mate Pere Milla for Espanyol is at the top of his list.

“I think my best save is the derby at Espanyol. That’s good. Not only technically, but also because of the moment of the game in which it was and what it meant to be able to continue with a draw. Also I made it against Pere, and we like to rib each other,” he told El Larguero.

Garcia was in sublime form against Espanyol, earning huge praise from Hansi Flick after the match.

“We didn’t deserve it, I will be honest. I have to say thank you to Joan García because he played unbelievable. He’s one of the best goalkeepers in the world,” he told reporters afterwards.

Garcia’s form this season has seen him earn a first call-up to the Spain squad, and he’ll be hoping he can make his international debut in the upcoming friendlies against Egypt and Serbia.

Barcelona continue to be linked with a move for Julian Alvarez in the summer transfer window as the Catalans search for a new No. 9.

However, it will not be an easy task bringing in the Atletico star. He will command a hefty fee and Atletico have been adamant he’s not for sale.

All of which has led to fresh speculation about other targets, with Mundo Deportivo claiming that Victor Osimhen is liked as a possible ‘Plan B’ for Barca.

The report highlights his impressive goalscoring record for Galatasaray – 56 goals in 70 games – but also claims his “temperamental nature” is a drawback.

Pep Guardiola has made it clear he loves watching Hansi Flick’s Barcelona and tries to make sure he can watch the Catalan giants whenever he can.

Barcelona have scored goals for fun under Flick, with his attacking style and infamous high line making for exciting games for supporters.

Guardiola is no different and says he loves to watch his beloved Barcelona in action.

“Whenever I have the chance to watch Barça, I do so with interest because I find it entertaining,” he told Catalunya Radio.

“In the end, we overthink things and make up many stories, but ultimately you go to the cinema, the theatre, to read a book, to a good restaurant… what you want is to enjoy yourself. And tell me one time when you don’t enjoy watching Barça.”

Flick’s team have just matched a Guardiola record, with Sunday’s victory over Rayo. The win is Barca’s 15th in a row at home, their longest ever streak, matching Pep’s team who did it in 2010-2011.
