Where are they now? The Barcelona Xl from Xavi's last game in 2015

Xavi Hernandez manages to turn things around for Barcelona as manager, but what has happened to the rest of the XI since his last appearance for the club as a player?

The legendary midfielder made his 767th and final appearance for Barcelona in June 2015, coming on as a late substitute in the 2015 Champions League final as Barca beat Juventus 3-1 to lift the trophy for the fifth times.

We took a look at the Barca squad on that triumphant evening to see how they are all faring today.

Marc-Andre ter Stegen

Ter Stegen arrived at Barcelona in 2014, replacing Victor Valdes, but did not make any La Liga appearances in his debut season.

But the goalkeeper has played in every Champions League game, culminating in the triumph over Juve in Berlin.

He became Barca's first choice in all competitions after Claudio Bravo left for Manchester City in 2016 and racked up 335 appearances during his time at the club.

Dani Alves

Alves is a Barcelona legend, winning an incredible 23 trophies during his time at Camp Nou, but he only lasted a year after the Champions League triumph, leaving a free transfer to late opponents Juventus in 2016.

The Brazilian international spent a successful year in Serie A, two seasons at PSG before returning to his native country with Sao Paulo.

He even made a brief return to Barca last season, helping stabilize the roster ship under Xavi. He now plays for Liga MX club UNAM.

Gerard pricks

Another club legend.

Pique made an astonishing 571 appearances for Barcelona and further cemented his iconic status by taking a dramatic pay cut in the summer of 2021 - allowing Barca to register three new signings.

The 35-year-old may have creaky knees these days, and one of Xavi's first tasks will be to identify a replacement for the centre-back, but Pique has remained an important part of the squad. Barça squad last season and made 40 appearances.

But the World Cup winner has been sidelined so far this year and his days at the club look numbered.

Javier Mascherano

Signed as a defensive midfielder, Mascherano was quickly converted into a centre-back by Pep Guardiola and played the role of distinction in the win over Juventus.

The Argentina international remained in Spain until January 2018, when he completed a €5.5m move to Chinese Super League side Hebei China Fortune.

After returning to his native Argentina for a year with Estudiantes, Mascherano announced his retirement in November 2020. He was last seen endorsing FIFA's two-year plan for the World Cup.

Jordi Alba

Alba was at the height of his powers in 2015, winning the treble with Barcelona and signing a new contract with a new €150m buyout clause.

The full-back remains at Camp Nou to date, already making three appearances this season, although you sense Xavi would prefer a younger alternative at left-back.

He also captained the Spanish national team until the semi-finals of Euro 2020, but it seems unlikely that he will make the World Cup squad.

Ivan Rakitic (Jeremy Mathieu, '90) A completely different type of player but the right man at the right time to fill Xavi's boots.

Scorer of the first goal at the Olympiastadion, Rakitic was another signing of 2014 who won a wide range of trophies in his first season at Barca.

The Croatian midfielder had a good habit of scoring in important matches, against the likes of Juventus, Real Madrid and Tottenham (don't laugh) and made over 300 appearances for the club.< /p>

But he found himself out of favor under Ronald Koeman and...
