FC Barcelona has chosen its Brazilian player Raphinha to be the new captain of the team for the 2026-2027 season, after the departure of goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen and defender Ronald Araújo. This decision is surprising, as it was expected that Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong would take a leadership role following his previous absence from the captaincy. However, Raphinha established his position through the desire of coach Hans Flick to benefit from his leadership qualities and outstanding performance on the field. This choice enhances Raphinha's standing in the locker room and places De Jong in second position in the team's leadership hierarchy.
