Barcelona have released their preliminary squad for this season’s Champions League, where they’ll take on Borussia Dortmund, Inter Milan and Slavia Prague in the group stages.

Those players are: Hiroki Abe, Ronaldo Araujo and Ferran Sarsanedas

Abe will wear the No. 37 shirt, Araujo the No. 33 and Sarsanedas will take the No. 34 if they do actually feature in the tournament for Ernesto Valverde’s side.
