Barcelona have undoubtedly been the unluckiest team in Europe when it comes to injuries in the early weeks of the 2024/25 season.
A whopping seven first-team players - including Gavi, Ronald Araujo and Dani Olmo - were all ruled out heading into the game against Villarreal on Sunday, and during the eventual 5-1 win another name was added to the injured list.
And it was a pretty important one at that.
Club captain and starting goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen was stretched off on the stroke of half-time with what has now been confirmed to be a season-ending knee injury.
Here's four potential replacements that Barcelona could sign to fill in in-between the sticks for the remainder of the 2024/25 season.
