Club career
Sergi Roberto, a native of Reus, Tarragona, Catalonia, started playing football with local UE Barri Santes Creus at the age of 8, transferring to Barcelona's youth academy six years later from neighbor Gimnàstic de Tarragona. He appeared with Barça's reserves for the first time in 2009-2010, making 29 appearances when they returned to the Segunda División after 11 years.
Roberto made his debut for the first team on November 10th, defeating Ceuta in the second half of the campaign's Copa del Rey (7–1 on aggregate). He made his first UEFA Champions League appearance on April 27th, playing as a replacement for David Villa in the last minute of a 2–0 away victory over Real Madrid in the competition's first leg.
Roberto made his La Liga debut on May 21, 2011 defeating Málaga by 3-1 margin in the season's last round. Pep Guardiola rested all his starters for the upcoming El Clásico on Sunday, winning by a whopping 4–0 home victory in his first appearance for the main squad against BATE Borisov in the Champions League group stage.
Roberto scored his second goal in only his third official appearance for Barcelona's first team on January 12, 2012, helping the visitors come from behind to win 2–1 over Osasuna in the domestic cup (6–1 on aggregate). He netted another on December 16, 2014, contributing to Huesca's 8-1 demolition at the Camp Nou.
Roberto was a right-back in several games in the 2015–16 season, after being reconverted by boss Luis Enrique and barely months after being declared surplus to requirements. He appeared on the other flank in two consecutive games against Athletic Bilbao in January 2016, one in the league and another in the Spanish Cup, replacing injured Jordi Alba, and then moving on to play in up to seven different positions.
Roberto got off to a right-back and gave two assists in a 6–2 home loss to Betis in the campaign's first match. He returned two decisive passes in a 5–0 away victory over Sporting de Gijón on September 24 from the same position on September 24.
In the second leg of the Champions League round-of-16, Roberto scored his final goal in the 95th minute in the second leg of the competition on Monday, making Barcelona the first club to overcome a four-goal deficit in the tournament. He began his employment on February 22, 2018 and lasted until 2022.
Roberto was given a straight red card after punching Marcelo in an eventual 2–2 home draw in the first half of El Clásico on May 6, 2018. He was first-choice right-back during the season, ahead of signing Nélson Semedo for the first time and his team gained the national championship after a one-year wait.

In March 2016, he was called up to the senior squad for friendlies against Romania and Italy. On the 27th of August, his debut took place in the former match in Cluj-Napoca, where he began in a 0–0 draw.
