Jordi Alba has been a regular at Barcelona since his arrival from Valencia in the summer of 2012.

The 32-year-old left-back has played a huge role in the club's success in the last decade. He has bagged 23 goals and an impressive 88 assists, and has won five La Liga and a Champions League title at the Camp Nou.

Alba has contributed one goal and seven assists in 25 games across competitions this season. He will look to help the Blaugrana produce a strong finish after a dismal start to their 2021-22 campaign.

Currently contracted with the club till 2024, Alba is one of the few experienced players left at the Camp Nou.

Sergio Busquets is a bonafide Barcelona legend. Widely regarded as one of the game's best-ever defensive midfielders, the 33-year-old made his Blaugrana debut in the historic 2008-09 campaign.

Barcelona won their first continental treble that season, and Busquets has not looked back since then. Currently in his 14th season at the club, the Spaniard recently made his 650th appearance across competitions for the La Liga giants.

That made the 33-year-old only the fourth player to reach the milestone for Barcelona. He has had a hand in only 58 goals (16 goals, 42 assists), but has played a key role in the Blaugrana's eight La Liga and three Champions League titles.

Busquets is contracted with the club till 2023, and is widely expected to retire at the Camp Nou.


#1 Gerard Pique - 13 years, 7 months

Gerard Pique is the longest-serving player at the Camp Nou following the departure of club legend Lionel Messi last summer.

The 35-year-old is one of the game's premier goalscoring centre-backs, having netted a record-equalling 16 goals in the Champions League. In almost 600 games across competitions for Barcelona, Pique has netted 52 times and also provided 13 assists.

The eight-time La Liga and four-time Champions League winner has scored twice in 28 games across competitions this season. Recently, Pique extended his contract with the Blaugrana till the summer of 2024.
