Last season ended on a disappointing note for Barcelona but the fans can still reflect on Pedri's explosive rise and have something to be happy about. The young midfielder was one of the biggest revelations of the season, winning the hearts of the Blaugrana faithful with eye-catching displays week in and week out.

Pedri made 52 appearances for the Blaugrana across all competitions, with a record of four goals and six assists to his name. He took it a step further this summer as he played an influential role in Spain's run to the semifinals of the European championship.

Pedri was rewarded with the Best Young Player Of The Tournament award. With the Spaniard in such explosive form, his spot in the starting lineup is certainly untouchable.

Central Midfielder: Frenkie de Jong

Another Barca midfielder who impressed at the Euros, Frenkie de Jong put up a brilliant show in the tournament, bossing the midfield for the Netherlands and earning a lot of plaudits as a result. Unfortunately, the Dutch team couldn't go far in the competition as they crashed out to Czech Republic in the round of 16 stage.

De Jong was one of the top performers for Barca last season, with an impressive tally of seven goals and eight assists in 51 games across all fronts. He will surely continue to run riot in the middle of the pitch next term.

Defensive midfielder: Sergio Busquets

The midfielder is still going strong for club and country

Sergio Busquets is already in the twilight of his career but he looks ready to carry on for the next year or two. The midfielder reminded us of his class with a string of spectacular performances for Spain at the Euros this summer.

Barca will need his experience and class for the upcoming campaign. He forged a decent partnership with De Jong and Pedri last term. It is only going to get better if they play alongside one another for one more term.
