Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes has stepped in to clarify the controversial comments made by Barcelona's Raphinha regarding his fitness management with the Brazilian national team. The winger faced significant scrutiny after suggesting a need for careful minute monitoring during the current international break.

Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti has selected Barcelona forward Raphinha to wear the captain's armband for Saturday's international friendly against Japan in Singapore. The 29-year-old was chosen ahead of Vinicius Jr and Bruno Guimaraes after regular skipper Marquinhos missed out through injury.

Barcelona goalkeeper Joan Garcia has insisted that while the Champions League remains a primary objective for the Catalan giants, it must not become a psychological burden for the squad. Speaking from the Spain national team camp, the shot-stopper emphasised the need for a balanced approach to European competition to avoid the pitfalls of past campaigns.

Wondering where to catch FC Barcelona's live matches in La Liga, the Champions League, the Copa del Rey or the Supercopa? You've come to the right place.
