The 2016–17 season was FC Barcelona Femení's 16th season as FC Barcelona's official women's football section. It was the last of eleven seasons managed by Xavi Llorens and in it Barcelona notably became the first Spanish team to reach the semifinals of the UEFA Women's Champions League in its fifth appearance on a row in the competition.
In 2015–16 Barcelona had ended the season with no titles for the first time since the 2009–10 season: Athletic Bilbao had won the league by a one-point margin and Atlético Madrid defeated Barcelona in the national cup's final. To strengthen the team Barcelona signed Andressa Alves from Montpellier and Line Røddik Hansen from European champion Olympique Lyonnais (though she hadn't taken part in the European campaign as she had started the 2015–16 season in Rosengård) as well as Ange N'Guessan, the team's first African player.Leila Ouahabi returned after three seasons in Valencia, and with the season started Vicky Losada also rejoined Barça following the end of the English championship. On the other hand, the Garrote sisters and Cristina Baudet were transferred to nearby Espanyol,Andrea Falcón and Esther Romero to rivals Atlético and Valencia and Andreia Norton returned to Portugal.
