Barcelona summer signings failing to win starting jobs

FC Barcelona’s signings this season have not won starting jobs as some had hoped, with only two players becoming key names in the starting XI: u0130lkay Gündou011fan and João Cancelo.

And it’s worth noting that Cancelo has faced a lot of criticism over his performances in the last few matches, especially in the defending area.

Oriol Romeu has failed to make an impression and been relegated to only occasional appearances despite multiple injuries in midfield.

Iñigo Martínez has fallen behind Pau Cubarsí in the pecking order, although it should be said that the youngster has operated at a very high level.
