Canuelas Overview

Jose Mourinho has offered a hilariously blunt assessment of the upcoming Liga clash between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona. The Real Madrid boss admitted he would ideally prefer both of his title rivals to lose this weekend as he prepares his side for a tough trip to Valencia.

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford has offered a glowing assessment of Barcelona prodigy Lamine Yamal, suggesting the teenager is the natural heir to Lionel Messi’s throne. The England international, who previously spent time at Camp Nou, believes the young winger is destined for the very top of the world game

Robert Lewandowski has opened up about the meteoric rise of Lamine Yamal, offering a candid assessment of the challenges facing Barcelona’s teenage sensation. While the Polish striker is full of praise for the winger's talent, he warned that starting at the top so early makes long-term success significantly harder to sustain.

Barcelona training saw a familiar face from the Premier League this week as former Arsenal and Valencia defender Shkodran Mustafi arrived at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper. The retired centre-back was present to get an up-close look at the high-flying Blaugrana under the guidance of Hansi Flick.
