The 2025-26 La Liga season is here, as Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are fighting to retake the division crown from Barcelona.

The Blaugrana will be back at the Spotify Camp Nou on Saturday

Barca is currently impressing in more than just La Liga and recently snagged a top-eight finish in the Champions League, sealing its spot with two conclusive victories over Copenhagen and Slavia Prague. Mallorca doesn’t have quite the same level of distraction on its plate, though that alone may not be enough to turn the dial in Catalonia.

Speculation over the striker’s future continues to swirl.

According to Diario Sport, the two positions that have emerged as the greatest priority are center-back and center-forward, and Barcelona have now decided that it is the attack which is the top focus. The report says that finding a new center-forward is the “absolute priority” and seen as “more important” that bringing in another defender.
