Preseason: 10 Barcelona players missing from squad for US tour

The team that left for the USA to prepare for the upcoming season did not include at least ten players from Barcelona.

With thirty-one players, Barca manager Hansi Flick travelled there on Sunday.

However, players like Ansu Fati, Pedri, Gavi, Ronald Araujo, and Frenkie de Jong are not on the team.

Ferran Torres and Lamine Yamal, who won the Euro 2024 with Spain, are currently on a well-earned vacation.

At the 2024 Olympics in Paris, young athletes such as Pau Cubarsi, Fermin Lopez, and Eric Garcia are representing Spain U23.

Senior players Raphinha and Ilkay Gundogan will be flying to Orlando alone; they have not boarded the same flight as the team. On the other hand, Jules Kounde, will join the squad in Annapolis, Maryland, on Thursday, according to ESPN.
