Dani Alves returned to Barcelona this summer to help build up the upcoming generation. It looks like he has come at just the right time. With his experience, hard-working spirit and winning mentality, the legendary right-back should bring a lot to the team and play an influential role in its revival.

Despite being 38, the Brazilian has shown no signs of slowing down yet. He was one of the best performers when he represented Barcelona in a recent friendly clash with Newell's Old Boys. His understanding of the club's core principles was on display throughout the game, as he contributed immensely to attack and defence.

Alves will be able to feature in the Blaugrana's official games starting in January, when he gets registered with the club. Alongside other veterans, the Brazilian is expected to play a key role in guiding and unleashing the next generation of superstars at Camp Nou.


#2 Gavi

The Spaniard has been a shining light for the Blaugrana since the season kicked off.

Gavi has been arguably the best Barcelona player since the campaign kicked off. The midfielder proved just how incredibly talented he is with his performance against Elche at the weekend. He scored a sensational solo goal, and produced several eye-catching moments.

The 17-year-old was named the man of the match for his fabulous display in the game. It was just another day in the office for the young Spaniard. He has already racked up 21 appearances for Barcelona so far this season, impressing everyone.


#1 Ansu Fati

Arguably Barcelona's finest attacker at the moment

Ansu Fati was assigned the legendary number 10 jersey vacated by Lionel Messi, which speaks volumes of how much faith Barcelona have in him. The attacker has proven to be a highly reliable figure in front of goal, and is well positioned to become the next face of the club.

Fati has bagged four goals and one assist in eight appearances for Barcelona across competitions this season. The winger is currently sidelined due to injury, but is expected to be back in action after the turn of the year.

It goes without saying that Ansu Fati's presence would help Barcelona address their goalscoring challenges. With the 19-year-old running riot in attack, the Blaugrana will likely progress quicker in their revival mission this season.
