Like most of us Barcelona will have been relieved to see the back of 2020 but head into a new year facing a hectic fixture list and the intriguing prospect of presidential elections at the end of the month.
Barca play five La Liga games in January, four of which are away from home, and will not be back at the Camp Nou until Athletic come to visit on January 31.
Before then Ronald Koeman’s side head to Huesca, Athletic, Granada and Elche.
In between there’s also a trip to Andalusia for a Spanish Cup semi-final against Real Sociedad on January 13.
