SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Luis Enrique, Barcelona coach:

"No doubt we are prepared. But if you ask if this is the prefect shape and we are one hundred per cent ready, then I have to say that no team is one hundred per cent ready at the start of the season. But we are in a good situation in order to face the forthcoming tournament. I can assure that because we have trained."

"I won't say the squad is closed to acquiring a new player. And not just for this summer market because the club must be always ready for reinforcements at any time. Always open to become stronger. So the answer is that we are always open to improve the squad."

(about Luis Suarez ban)

"This is what we have. We know their decision and we know when he will be able to help us. And the team is strong and solid enough to be able to face the first league and Champions League games. Whatever comes along. We want to focus on what we have now and which players can add to the team right now. As for the rest of them, including Luis (Suarez), we aim to incorporate them as soon as we can. The situation doesn't affect us at all."
