Jon Driscoll and Terry Gibson return to look ahead to the start of the 2016/17 La Liga season on the La Liga Weekly Podcast.

The duo look at the transfer activity at Barcelona and Atletico Madrid and the relatively quiet summer so far at Real Madrid.

While Barcelona saw Dani Alves leave for Juventus, they have brought in several new players, including Andre Gomes and Samuel Umtiti.

Atletico have been busier, with Kevin Gameiro and Nicolas Gaitan their main signings and Luciano Vietto departing on a season-long loan to Villarreal.

On the other side of the capital, Real have only re-signed Alvaro Morata from Juventus, although Gibson expects them to do more business before the transfer window shuts at the end of the month.

Driscoll and Gibson also discuss the season ahead and who are the favourites for the title, which was won last year by Barcelona.
