In recent times, Sergi Roberto has become an unpopular figure at Barcelona, with fans consistently demanding his expulsion. While the Catalan player has endured a patchy run of form lately, nothing can take away the impressive career he has had at Barcelona.

One of the longest-serving players at Camp Nou, Roberto is one of four captains at the club. The utility man was once highly praised for his versatility, allowing him to ply his trade in the center of the park as well as on the right flank of the defence.

Subsequently, Roberto has managed to amass 37 assists in 314 appearances with the club, playing in various positions. Despite his numerous contributions, the Spaniard has earned an unfavorable reputation among Culers lately. The lack of urgency in his current style of play is constantly tarnishing the legacy Roberto has worked so hard to forge.


#2 Sergio Busquets - 41 assists

The current captain of the Blaugrana, Sergio Busquets, is also the second-best assist provider among his team-mates. While the defensive midfielder is rarely applauded for his creative skills, his tally of 41 assists in 640 appearances ranks him 16th in the all-time assists chart for Barcelona.

Generally regarded as one of the most talented midfielders at the base of the pitch, Busquets has enjoyed unimaginable levels of success with Barcelona. The Spanish maestro was introduced to the world by Pep Guardiola in 2008, after which he quickly established his place in the first team.

'The Octopus of Badia', as he is fondly addressed, has been at the center of Barcelona's triumphs in the early 2010s and remains a consistent figure in their turbulent times. Aged 33, Busquets has suffered a slight dip in form but is expected to continue at the club given his unparalleled pedigree.


#1 Jordi Alba - 83 assists

Following Lionel Messi's untimely departure, Jordi Alba officially replaced him as the highest assist maker, still contracted to Barcelona. Alba, who recently entered his 10th season at his boyhood club, has racked up 83 assists in Catalonia so far.

If recent reports are to be believed, the Catalan giants are looking to find a replacement for Alba, who has experienced a substantial decline in form in recent years. Nevertheless, he remains one of the most important figures at Barcelona due to his consistent output.

A masterful defender, the Spanish left-back is equally adept going forward, with his soaring pace assisting him in attacking instances. Alba is widely popular for bombarding the opposition's box with quality crosses. As a result, he has managed to accumulate an impressive number of assists, ranking him above everyone else in the current Barcelona squad in this department.
