Barca’s €7.5m signing Matheus has only played 17 minutes this term.
As Ronald Koeman promised, he’s made Frenkie de Jong a key player at Barcelona, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that the Dutchman is the player with the most minutes spent on the pitch this term so far. Leo Messi, despite being 33 years old, having played only 25 minutes less.
Here’s the full list:
- Frenkie de Jong — 1,589 mins, 19 matches
