After recently announcing their final roster for the preseason trip, Barcelona is about to depart for their preseason training in the United States.
The squad includes players like Frenkie de Jong as well as recent additions Raphinha, Andreas Christensen, and Franck Kessie, while others like Neto, Riqui Puig, and Oscar Mingueza are absent.
According to reports, Robert Lewandowski could arrive at the Florida camp tomorrow following a medical evaluation in Miami.
Gerard Romero thinks Xavi is AWOL from Barcelona’s trip to the United States, which is a fairly stunning assertion. Due to issues with his passport, the Barça coach is unable to travel with the club today.
The Barcelona team is hoping that the situation will be settled quickly so that Xavi can rejoin the team. The existing roster, however, is scheduled to depart for Florida without their head coach for the time being. Because of Xavi’s absence, it may be a race against time for the Spaniard to be ready for the team’s next friendly against Inter Miami on July 20.
However, the other coaches will be there, as well as senior figures like Gerard Pique. They will be expected to take over until Xavi finally gets his passport troubles resolved and departs across the Atlantic.
