Ivan Rakitic, the captain who does not rest
The Croatian played against Cultural Leonesa in the Copa del Rey and wore the armband
Rotations do not mix with Ivan Rakitic. The Barcelona midfielder did not sit out the Copa del Rey round of 32 second leg at Camp Nou against Cultural Leonesa like the rest of the squad's heavy weights. No, he started and captained the side.
The No 4 is one of the players who has played the most minutes for Barca this season - 1,529 in total between La Liga and Champions League. Apart from the match against Girona, the fourth week of the season, he has played the majority of minutes in Barca's games. He has completed the full 90 a total of 13 times in La Liga.
He missed the first leg of the cup tie for rest, as well as being suspended against Atletico Madrid.
