The arrival of Pau López, Joel Robles, Inui, Canales, Antonio Barragán and William Carvalho stands out. In terms of friendlies, the Spaniards played a lot to catch the rhythm of football and leave behind the hard physical work done in the preseason. The scores of these matches were as follows: Victory 1-0 against Nottingham Forest, 1-1 draw with Braga, win 2-0 against Huddersfield, victory 2-1 against Rot-Weiss Essen, defeat 2-3 against Borussia Monchengladbach, 0-0 draw against Wolverhampton, 3-2 win against Olympique de Marseille and 2-2 equality against Lille.
