FC Barcelona already have everything in place for the final push in the Champions League quarter-finals against Atlético de Madrid .

Hansi Flick has officially announced the squad list for the match at Spotify Camp Nou, confirming expectations: Frenkie de Jong and Marc Bernal are left out through injury. However, the German coach has a luxury attacking arsenal at his disposal to seal qualification for the next round.

The big new development in their European campaign is the emergence of names like Marcus Rashford and Roony Bardghji , who have taken Barça’s attack up a level this season.  Alongside them, the usual figures of Lamine Yamal and Robert Lewandowski will lead the line on a night that promises to be historic.

In midfield, Pedri and Gavi are once again pulling the strings after their respective recoveries, with a red-hot Fermín López alongside them.

At the back, solidity is guaranteed with the in-form pairing of Ronald Araújo and Pau Cubarsí . Flick has also decided to include promising academy talents like Xavi Espart and Cortés , showing that La Masia remains the club’s fundamental pillar on the biggest international stages. The objective is clear: keep a clean sheet and make the most of the width and directness out wide.

The mood in the Catalan capital is one of maximum tension and optimism in equal measure. A packed Spotify Camp Nou is expected to roar on a team dreaming of lifting the "Big Ears" once again. Simeone’s Atlético will not make it easy, but Barça come into it flying high on confidence.
