Setien has named a 16-man squad -- and three of them are goalkeepers

Barcelona close the season on Sunday with a visit to Alaves having seen Real Madrid clinch the La Liga title with a game to spare on Thursday. 

Quique Setien's side will look to bounce back from a 2-1 loss at home to Osasuna but they will do so with the smallest squad of the season so far. 

Barça have named just 16 players in the squad for the league game in Vitoria, with four or the players from the B team and three of them goalkeepers. 

Therefore, Setien will have just three outfield substitutes at Mendizorroza, with three players suspended (Pique, Junior and Rakitic) and two injured (Umtiti and Griezmann). Setien also said Arthur turned up on Saturday with a pain in his ankle. 

The full squad: Ter Stegen, Semedo, Sergio Busquets, Suárez, Messi, Neto, Lenglet, Jordi Alba, Braihwaite, Sergi Roberto, De Jong, Arturo Vidal, Riqui Puig, Ansu Fati, Araujo and Arnau.
