Barcelona sporting director content with squad

03 September 2013 - 18:13

Barcelona sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta has confirmed that he is extremely satisfied with the current squad after the transfer window drew to a close.

  • Chelsea midfielder looking forward to London derby vs Spurs
  • Arsenal in the front row to sign Dutch striker

  • The La Liga champions have been pretty quiet in the transfer window having signed just one player this entire summer. The Catalan giants managed to secure the services of Brazil international Neymar but also saw David Villa, Thiago Alcantara and Eric Abidal leave the club.



    However, Barcelona have started the new season pretty well having won all their domestic games so far and also edging past Atletico Madrid to lift the SuperCopa. Despite having failed to land any of their long standing defensive targets this summer, Zubizarreta remains confident about his team's chances this season.



    "I'm delighted with the squad that we have. Whoever plays, I will feel extraordinarily satisfied," he said on his club's website.



    "We had a complex summer, long and difficult, with complicated situations. But amongst all of that, we have the team that we want.



    "The team is competing extraordinarily well. You don't just find cups in the museum. You have to go out and win them. This team has always wanted to get better and we're making an effort to do that."
