Transfer: Martinez to join Chelsea as Barcelona sign Livaković

Rodri made his Barcelona debut in a 2-0 victory against Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish League on Thursday. Fans in attendance showed their support for Catalonia, displaying "estelada" flags despite Barcelona's tribute plans falling through due to a fan's confiscated flag earlier in the week. Rodri, signed from Manchester City after leading Spain to the World Cup, came on as a substitute in the 62nd minute and received a warm welcome from the Camp Nou crowd.
