Barcelona are once again aiming for a silverware-laden season as they aim to win the league, the Champions League, and Copa de la Reina – to go with their Supercopa de Espana. England duo Walsh and Bronze will hope to be a key part of these trophy bids.
GettyDID YOU KNOW?
Arguably Barcelona's toughest test to win a trophy will be in the Champions League this season. The Blaugrana hold a 2-1 first leg advantage over Norwegian side Brann in the quarter-finals of the competition and if they get through that they are likely to face Chelsea in the last four.
WHAT NEXT?
Defending champions Barcelona host Brann in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie on Thursday, before travelling to third-placed Levante – the only side to take points off them this term – in Liga F action three days later.
