What I experienced there was a dream. I arrived young, you see the teammates I had, and when I left I can say that many are friends; I still talk to them. The truth is I miss many of them a lot, but that's life. I wish them all the best and hope to return in the future.

Barcelona's priorities for the summer transfer window include securing a top-level centre-forward and a reliable left-footed centre-back, with Julian Alvarez and Alessandro Bastoni as primary targets. Alvarez's dynamism and pressing ability complement the frontline, while Bastoni's composure and tactical intelligence strengthen the defense.

Araujo started the game at right-back but asked to be subbed and was replaced by Bernal in the first half of the match in the Spanish capital.

Tavares attempted to chase down a long ball he had played ahead of himself, but the situation quickly escalated. Unable to control his momentum, he slipped and collided heavily with the perimeter structure near the pitch.

Ferran Torres has missed 19 big chances in La Liga this season, more than any other player in the competition. This drop-off is significant for a forward who had established himself as a reliable attacking option.

"Playing for Benfica, just like at Barça, is out of love. I have one year left on my contract; if I have to play in Saudi Arabia, I'll play; if I have to play in Europe, I'll play. It will depend on Al Hilal. When Barcelona calls, you can't refuse. I feel at home here; I've adapted very well."

Barcelona is looking to reinforce their left flank and has identified Ez Abde as a potential target. Abde, who previously played for Barcelona, has made a significant impact at Real Betis, scoring nine goals and assisting eight in 32 appearances this season.

Barcelona has offered Andreas Christensen a two-year extension, but with a salary reduction of roughly half of his current wages, tied to performance-based variables.
