Raphinha has taken another major step towards becoming a long-term Barcelona figure after signing a new contract that will keep him at the Catalan club until June 2030.

Raphinha’s latest recognition comes after another outstanding month in front of goal, with the Barcelona captain scoring seven times and providing two assists across the club’s four league matches in September. His performances have earned him the Player of the Month award for the second consecutive month.

The victory extended Barcelona's perfect La Liga record to seven wins from seven matches, keeping Hansi Flick's side at the top of the table as their attacking stars continue to produce at an extraordinary rate.

Barcelona wasted little time showing Feyenoord what they were up against as Raphinha opened the scoring after just three minutes.

Barcelona's reputation for producing elite young footballers has received another boost, with two of their players included among the five nominees for the 2026 Ballon d’Or Women’s Young Talent of the Year award.

Barcelona's reputation for producing some of football's brightest young stars has been recognised once again, with Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsí both named among the nominees for the 2026 Ballon d’Or Men’s Young Talent of the Year award.

The draw was conducted under the Champions League's expanded format, with each of the 36 teams set to play eight different opponents — four at home and four away. The exact dates and kick-off times for the individual matches will be announced by UEFA on Saturday, August 29.
