Douglas, with more desire than ever
Douglas is one of the new faces at Barça's pre-season training
Douglas returns to Barcelona after a loan spell at Sporting Gijón
The Brazilian defender Douglas, back at FC Barcelona’s, is one of 19 players involved in the club’s first day of pre-season training and one of the player’s looking forward to the new season the most.
After having been on loan at Sporting Gijón for a season, Douglas returns to Barcelona with his future still up in the air. He will meet Ernesto Valverde for the first time on his return so he still doesn’t know the manager’s plans for him.
However, he is still hopeful he can convince Valverde he can play a role with the first team this year and that he doesn’t require a loan or transfer to another club. He has always said he wants to be a success at Barça, or at least in European football.
