According to information received, Sergi Roberto, Marc ter Stegen, Ronald Araujo, and Frenkie de Jong will wear the captain's armband in that sequence at the start of the next season.
Remember that Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, and Gerard Pique, the previous season's captains, all left Barcelona.
As first captain, Sergi Roberto takes up the armband. Joining with him are midfielder Frenkie de Jong, center defender Ronald Araujo, and goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen.
The players elect the captains after casting their votes during the club's preseason tour.
De Jong and Araujo are appointed as leaders for the first time, while Ter Stegen succeeded Pique last season when the defender retired. The three of them has developed into a significant member of the team, and each was essential to Barcelona's championship victory last year.
Although Roberto will serve as the team's first captain, it is uncertain how much of the next season he will actually start.
It's possible that Ter Stegen will captain the club next year since the flexible experienced is not assured a spot in the starting XI.
