8With Pique and Busquets
Valverde may want De Jong and De Ligt to learn from to two experienced players before fully replacing them in the side.De Jong is a natural in Busquet’s position but he may be pushed slightly further forward to accommodate them both.
8Without Pique
The defender is 32-years-old and next season may be his last in a Barcelona shirt.He will finish his career with the club and looks set to take over as President when he calls it a day.The manager may start preparing for the future without the defender and pair De Ligt with either Samuel Umtiti or Clement Lenglet.
8Without Busquets
Sergio Busquets has perhaps not got the recognition he deserves for the job he has done at Barcelona over the last decade.He is likely to be a one man club and at 30 still has a few years left in him.Valverde may look to prepare for life after the midfielder by deploying De Jong in the holding role.
8Without Pique and Busquets
It is hard to imagine Barcelona would not use both players for big La Liga and Champions League clashes.But against lesser opponents, they may look to give both De Jong and De Ligt the experience of being the key components in the side.
8Change of formation
Valverde may look to move away from his favoured 4-3-3 formation in order to accommodate his new signings.Ousmane Dembele could shift to the right in a 4-4-2 to allow both Busquets and De Jong to play in the middle.
