Semedo: I hope this season will be better than the previous one LaLiga - Barcelona Aiming for improvement in 2018/19

The upcoming season will be Nelson Semedo's second at Barcelona and the right-back is hoping to do better than he did last year.

He wasn't a guaranteed starter for Ernesto Valverde and had to share right-back minutes with Sergi Roberto, but the Portuguese full-back believes he can push on in 2018/19.

"I am adapting well to the position," he told the media on Wednesday night.

"I am receiving instructions to improve in all aspects, so that I can help Barcelona in the best way.

"My teammates, the coaches and the fans have helped me a lot.

"I hope that this season can be better than the previous one.

"We are all keen to play, but in the end the coach will decide.

"We are all working hard to achieve our objectives.

"The objective for every year is to win everything, as there is a good enough team to win everything.

"We must keep working to win all of the cups.

"[The Champions League] is a good tournament to compete in, but we must fight for everything."

He was also asked about last pre-season, when he had a clash with Neymar during training, just after being signed by the Catalan club.

"That was difficult, but these are things that happen," he said.

"We all train with a lot of motivation.

"This happens at all teams."

Barcelona have one more International Champions Cup game in the United States, against AC Milan.
