Discover how the squad arrives at the preseason"},"content":{"rendered":"

Barca kicked off their preseason with several unknowns that will have to be defined as the market progresses. But the certainties are greater for Hansi Flick<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

FC Barcelona started its preseason this Sunday (July 13) with mostly familiar faces and a few new ones. Thus, Hansi Flick takes over his second year in charge of the Blaugrana team<\/strong> after a first season with a domestic treble (League, Cup and Spanish Super Cup).<\/p>

As usual, the players showed up at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper for medical and physical check-ups. Also, the Catalan team is expected to hold its first double training session this Monday before heading to Asia for the preseason tour.<\/p>

Bar\u00e7a, for now, has enough players to double the different demarcations within the field. That is why at FCBN<\/strong> we want to tell you how the squad is currently.<\/p>

The ‘overbooking’ in the Blaugrana goal, a problem to solve<\/b><\/h2>

Bar\u00e7a has four goalkeepers so far and, although the summer market only opened on July 1, they know they must let go of at least one.<\/p>

In principle, the new addition, Joan Garc\u00eda<\/strong>, is expected to be the new owner of the Cule goal, followed by Wojciech Szcz\u0119sny (renewed until 2027), Marc-Andr\u00e9 ter Stegen<\/a> (who knows of Galatasaray’s interest in signing him) and I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a<\/a> (last option among the goalkeepers), so it is expected that both the Alicante native and the German will leave the club this summer.<\/p>

Bar\u00e7a’s defense, shielded, but with a doubt<\/b><\/h2>

Barcelona has enough players for the central zone. Pau Cubars\u00ed, \u00cd\u00f1igo Mart\u00ednez, Ronald Araujo, Eric Garc\u00eda<\/strong> (under contract until 2026; the Blaugrana entity is already working on his renewal) and Andreas Christensen<\/strong> complete a quintet that can give Flick effective security when making rotations.<\/p>

However, neither the Uruguayan nor the Dane would have their continuity assured, as Bar\u00e7a needs to sell at least one of them. Juventus has sounded out the Charrua<\/a>, while AC Milan and Al-Nassr have done the same with the native of Lillerod.<\/p>
