"The Blaugrana are in Saudi Arabia for the Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Athletic Club, and Hansi Flick has called up the following 24 players for Wednesday's clash: Goalkeepers: 13. Joan Garcia, 25. Wojciech Szczesny, 31. Diego Kochen Defenders: 3. Alejandro Balde, 4. Ronald Araujo, 5. Pau Cubarsí, 18. Gerard Martín, 23. Jules Kounde, 24. Eric Garcia, 26. Jofre Torrents"
"The big news for this one is the return of Ronald Araujo, who is named in the squad for the first time in six weeks after taking an mental health break. The Uruguayan might still not make the final 23-man cut if he's not physically ready to play, but his presence in the squad alone is good news for a Barça squad lacking in depth at the back."
Barcelona travel to Saudi Arabia for the Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Athletic Club with a 24-player squad selected by Hansi Flick. Ronald Araujo returns to the squad after a six-week mental health break but may still miss the final 23 if not fully fit. Gavi and Andreas Christensen are ruled out with knee injuries, and Marc-André ter Stegen was sent home after a training injury. A predicted 4-2-3-1 lineup is Joan; Kounde, Cubarsí, Eric, Balde; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, Fermín, Raphinha; Lewandowski. Kickoff times are listed for multiple time zones.
