FC Barcelona is once again a major protagonist in the FIFA international break in October 2025. The Barça team contributes up to 11 players to the national teams of Spain, the Netherlands, Poland, France, Denmark, England, and Sweden.

Below, we review in detail the schedule of each Barça player defending the colors of their country, which includes qualifying matches for the 2026 World Cup, friendlies, and official matches in Europe.
