LaLiga: Hansi Flick picks new Barcelona captains

Barcelona manager, Hansi Flick, has decided on his captains for the 2026/2027 season.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Flick’s choices are Raphinha, Pedri, Lamine Yamal, Eric Garcia and Frenkie de Jong.

Raphinha will mostly wear the armband as the main captain, while Pedri will be assistant captain.

Flick has selected the five-man leadership group following a vote by the squad.

De Jong was already part of the captaincy group, while Garcia had previously been tipped to wear the armband at Camp Nou.

However, Yamal’s inclusion remains the big surprise as he is still only 19.
