Barcelona square off against Getafe in La Liga matchday 8 with coach Hansi Flick shuffling his starting eleven, resting two regular starters and adjusting the lineup from recent fixtures. Jules Kounde is pushing to reclaim a starting spot after Eric Garcia featured in that role for a run of games.
Off the pitch, Chelsea are being linked with midfielder Frenkie de Jong. Liverpool are also believed to be monitoring an out-of-favour Barcelona defender, with reports placing the fee at around 60 million pounds.
