Barcelona vice-president Rafa Yuste admits they're still seeking new signings.

Ilkay Gundogan, Oriol Romeu and Inigo Martinez have arrived, though Yuste insists more are on their way.

He told Sport: "The market never closes at a club like Bara. At the moment, we have an even stronger squad than we could have hoped for thanks to the work that has been done by the sporting department, backed by the board and the president. We have three great new players who are going to give that extra plus of excellence to the team, I am convinced.

"Since Xavi arrived we have tried to give him everything that he and his coaching staff have wanted, little by little we have been completing this team profile that Xavi has asked for so much.

"It has cost a lot, you know that Bara came from a point of, I would say, near death two and a half years ago. Bara were at death's door. We have been able to right this course that had the ship totally sunk."
