Barcelona will be eager to return to winning ways when they take on CA Osasuna at home later tonight in La Liga.
After back-to-back defeats against Athletic Club and Villarreal, Xavi Hernandez & co. will be eager to turn things around and secure all three points.
With the manager having announced his departure at the end of the season, there will be hope that it produces a reaction from within the team to push themselves harder.
Ahead of the game, the Barcelona squad list for the Osasuna clash has been released. As expected, the injured players – Gavi, Alejandro Balde, Marcos Alonso, Raphinha, Inigo Martinez, Joao Felix, and Marc-Andre ter Stegen are all unavailable.
Fermin Lopez gets a call-up as officially a first-team member with his new No. 16 shirt after his registration was completed last night.
Youngster Unai Hernandez has also been called up following the injury to Joao Felix. He joins fellow academy talents like Marc Casado, Pau Cubarsi, and Hector Fort, who have become regulars in Xavi’s squad lists of late. Marc Guiu, however, is absent.
