Barcelona head coach Luis Enrique has indicated there could yet be movement in and out of the Camp Nou when the transfer window reopens in January.

The club were barred from registering new players for two consecutive transfer windows in 2015 after breaking FIFA rules on the signing of foreign players under the age of 16.

But it did not stop them winning five trophies this calendar year and they will be able to hand debuts to off-season recruits Arda Turan and Aleix Vidal, who have not been able to play so far this season due to the sanction, from January 4.

"At Barca we always have an eye on the market," Enrique told a news conference ahead of Barca's game against Real Betis on Wednesday night.

"We are looking at everything, the window hasn't opened, but you always have to think about improving the team.

"That means not just players coming in, but also players leaving. It is possible that players leave, but it will be based on reinforcing the team."
