Defending LaLiga and Serie A champions, FC Barcelona and Napoli, clash in the Champions League round of 16.

Disappointing domestic seasons for both teams heighten the stakes for reaching the quarterfinals - a feat which Barcelona has not managed since 2020.

In the financials, Napoli's figures pale in comparison to FC Barcelona's, even though the Italians outspent Barcelona on transfers this season. However, this is unsurprising upon examining the financial health of the two clubs.

Despite FC Barcelona's squad being worth almost double that of Napoli, the most valuable player sides in Naples as Victor Oshimen's €134 million valuation is not topped by any Barcelona players.
