“We will have to face a team that is playing very well. I like their youth in midfield, guys who have great possession of the ball.

My team is doing a good job in general, looking for areas in every match where we think we can hurt the opponent. We are thinking about our team and will work according to our plan.

Rafinha is one of the best in La Liga because of his courage and style of play. We have our strengths to show in what promises to be an interesting match. Yamal is an outstanding football player who is progressing every day. In one-on-one situations, he is one of the best in attack. Barcelona do not have a player with the same characteristics, but they have others such as Ferran, Pedri, Olmo who can operate in a different way to achieve their goals.
