15 Barça players win their first Liga title

15 Barça players win their first Liga title

It is the first Liga league title for players such as Gavi, Araujo and Pedri, and for Lewandowski and Kessie, who also lifted the trophy with their respective teams last season

This 2022/23 Liga triumph will remain a special memory for 15 Barça players in particular. They are the protagonists of this success story, having won their first league title with FC Barcelona. Only five first team squad members are not on this list, a reflection of youth and talent blended with vast experience. A perfect combination to get the corks popping for these FC Barcelona players for the first time...

Araujo

One of the stalwarts of this league title and one of the first names on the teamsheet for Xavi's defence. The Uruguayan defender joined the Club in summer 2018, drawing on knowledge while at La Masia to add to his competitive and battling nature to win his first title. 

Christensen

Truly an elegant central defender, the Dane has delighted fans from far and wide during this competition. This is the number 15's first season at Barça and he has won another domestic title, after winning the Premier League while at Chelsea. 

Marcos Alonso 

Showing defensive solidity and assured build-up play, the number 17 has moved from left-back to central defender. This is his second league title after he won the Premier League with Chelsea in the 2016/17 season.

Kounde

The Frenchman has won his first Liga as an FC Barcelona player in his fourth season in the Spanish league. Playing mainly as right-back, Kounde is known for his assured passing from the back.

Eric Garcia 

After joining the Barça School in 2008 and developing at La Masia up to 2017, the Catalan has won his first league title with FC Barcelona during a campaign where he has played as central defender and as a central midfielder. He already has one league title in England from his time at Manchester City. 

Balde 

A young player making a big impact with a great future. Educated at La Masia, he has become first choice at left-back, showing quality, power, strength and speed. Still qualifying to play as a first year youth player for Barça Atlètic, he has played a key role in this Liga title win.

Pedri 

Pure talent and magic in the FC Barcelona midfield, he is one of the guiding lights in Xavi's team. After shining for the second season in a row at the Spotify Camp Nou, the Canary Islander has won his first league title and is the embodiment of the slogan "La Liga is ours. The future too".

Kessie 

One of two current first team squad players to lift the league trophy for the second season in a row. After winning Serie A with AC Milan last season, the "Presidente" has won another league title, this time with Barça in Spain. His hard work and commitment underpinned a good season with a highlight of a winning goal against Real Madrid at the Spotify Camp Nou to top it all off.

Frenkie de Jong

A key cog in Barça's midfield in his fourth season with the Club. The Dutchman brings control, helping to set the rhythm and break lines, and to take the Club to top spot this season. This is his second league title after winning the Eredivisie with Ajax in the 2018/19 season. 

Gavi 

The Andalucian central midfielder's desire has been key for this league win. He provides energy and hard work to the midfield, and is another La Masia graduate who has lifted his first league title. His joy after becoming a permanent fixture in the team since last year despite his young age is almost palpable.

GAVI ESCUT

Lewandowski

The Polish striker has a love affair with league titles, as this is his ninth as a player. With his thirst for goals and a desire to become the league's top scorer this season, the number 9 has won his first league title in Spain with FC Barcelona. However, after winning eight times in a row with Bayern Munich from 2014/15 to 2021/22, he is simply gobbling up the goals and league titles! 

Ansu Fati 

Barça's number 10 has experienced his first league triumph during a season when he brought up his century for the Club, another landmark to add to his early career records. He is the third player to play 100 games for FC Barcelona and is only 20 years old.

Ferran Torres

Now in his second season at the Club, the Spaniard has added to his league title wins. Scoring a decisive goal against Atlético Madrid at the Spotify Camp Nou, this is the first Spanish league title win for the number 11. Let's not forget that he already won the Premier League twice with Manchester City.


Raphinha 

After playing in Brazil, Portugal, France and England, his first league title came at Can Barça. Offering assists, goals, and hard work from the wing, Raphinha has delighted fans during his first year at the Club. 

Iñaki Peña

His journey from La Masia to the Spotify Camp Nou has become even sweeter with this league title in his first year as a first team squad member.

The list can go on if we consider Arnau Tenas, Pablo Torre, Lamine Yamal, Chadi Riad, Aleix Garrido, Ángel Alarcón, Memphis, Bellerín and Aubameyang, all of whom were involved in Barça becoming Liga champions for the 27th time.
