goalkeeper Shake-up at Spotify Camp Nou

Barcelona have officially updated their squad numbers for the 2026/27 campaign, signaling a new era in the club's goalkeeping hierarchy. The changes, confirmed via the official La Liga website, see a significant shift in the numbering for the club's shot-stoppers.

Joan García claims the Number 1 shirt

Following a stellar debut campaign at the Spotify Camp Nou, Joan García has been rewarded with the prestigious number 1 jersey. García, who previously wore number 13, takes over the shirt following the departure of Marc-André ter Stegen, who has joined Ajax on loan.

Szczęsny shifts to number 13

Meanwhile, Wojciech Szczęsny, who remains a favorite within the Barcelona dressing room, will continue his role as the primary backup to García. As part of the reshuffle, the Polish international has swapped his previous number 25 shirt for the number 13, which was vacated by García.

These updates ensure Hansi Flick's squad is fully organized as they move forward into the new season, with the official La Liga squad registration reflecting these specific changes.
