Having failed to win a single trophy in 2014, there is no UEFA Super Cup or Supercopa de España clash on the Blaugrana’s list of fixtures this summer. What they have lined up are club friendlies as their competitive season starts on August 24th with a home game against Elche.
The Catalans are currently getting used to playing under Luis Enrique who replaced Tata Martino as coach, earlier this year. Banned Luis Suarez is yet to join his new team mates after quitting Liverpool. However, Messi is back.
FIFA president Sepp Blatter said last year that Ballon d’Or titleholder Cristiano Ronaldo spends too much time styling his hair but “good boy” Messi has just surprised fans with a new haircut on his return to training with Barcelona.
He announced to his 68 million Facebook fans:
