Villarreal presents itself with a renewed squad among which some interesting players stand out such as Gerard Moreno, Alexander Sorloth, Dani Parejo, Alex Baena, Alfonso Pedraza, Filip Jorgensen and Erick Baily. Villarreal is a powerhouse in Spanish football and is a great team that constantly fights to stay in LaLiga and seek to get into the UEFA competitions. They will seek to give their best game and begin to have more clarity regarding the squad and the roster with those that will close the second half of the season. At the moment, these are 15 points away from the places that access UEFA competitions, so they will leave for some point.
Barcelona's last roster!
This is the team's latest roster: Iñaki Peña, Andreas Christensen, Ronald Araújo, Alejandro Balde, Jules Koundé, Frenkie de Jong, Pedri, Ilkay Gündogan, Robert Lewandowski, Ferran Torres and Lamine Yamal.
Robert Lewandowski, player to watch!
The Barcelona forward is one of his club's great offensive references and the team's top scorer. Lewandowski seeks to continue his development in European football and be a fundamental piece for Barcelona in the football generation. This is one of the team's figures and his contribution on offense is vital for the team's aspirations in all competitions. During last season, the player participated in 46 games where he scored 33 goals and 8 assists. The Polish-British striker had a great season and Barcelona will continue to choose for him to be the offensive pillar that brings them closer to achieving their goals.
How does Barcelona get here?
Barca continues its path in the 2023-2024 LaLiga season where it will fight for the two-time championship of the Spanish first division, although the main objective is to return to the great glories in the UEFA Champions League. Barcelona finished as champions in first position in LaLiga with 88 points, after 28 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses. However, their path in the UEFA Champions League did not reach an important place, as they were eliminated in the Group Stage and subsequently eliminated in the first elimination round of the Europa League. Some interesting names in this group are Robert Lewandowski, Pedri, Marc-André ter Stegen, Raphinha and Ousmane Dembélé, these are the players who have great preparation and will be the pillars in all the lines of the team. Likewise, the additions of players such as Ikay Gündogan, Julián Araujo, Oriol Romeu and Iñigo Martínez will seek to return to the top of European football. Barcelona will seek to be one of the protagonists in the championship and reach new heights in all the competitions in which it participates.
