Remove ads
The 2020–21 season was the 121st season in the existence of Futbol Club Barcelona and its 91st consecutive season in the top flight of Spanish football. In addition to the domestic league, Barcelona participated in this season's editions of the Copa del Rey, the Supercopa de España, and the UEFA Champions League. The season covered the period from 15 August 2020 to 30 June 2021, with the late start to the season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The season was their first since 2013–14 without Luis Suárez and Ivan Rakitić, who are respectively departed to Atlético Madrid and Sevilla.
Coming off a disastrous 2019–20 season, which not only ended trophyless for the first time in 12 years, but also produced a humiliating 8–2 defeat to Bayern München in the Champions League, Barcelona looked to bounce back. Ronald Koeman was brought in as manager in place of Quique Setién, and he immediately emphasized his strive to reform the squad, underscored by the aforementioned departure of Suárez to Atlético Madrid. This season saw Barça win a record-extending 31st Copa del Rey and fight until the end for the La Liga title, although several stumbles near the finish line meant they finished third, their lowest league position since 2007–08. In the Champions League, Barcelona finished second in their group and then lost to PSG in the round of 16, breaking their streak of 13 consecutive quarter-final appearances in the competition.
Although not known at the time, this season ended up being Lionel Messi's last at Barcelona. He scored his last goal for the club in his last game, which Barça lost 1–2 to Celta Vigo on 16 May 2021.
