FC Barcelona Set to Play Pre-Season Matches in Africa
In a recent board meeting led by Rafa Yuste, officials from FC Barcelona discussed plans for the upcoming pre-season activities. Due to the impending conclusion of the World Cup on July 19, the club has opted out of its traditional summer tour, instead focusing on organizing two friendly matches, as reported by Mundo Deportivo. One of these matches is expected to take place in Kenya, potentially in the capital city of Nairobi, while the other is set to occur in Morocco. Although the specific opponents for these matches have yet to be confirmed, there are speculations about a possible encounter with Liverpool during the African leg of the tour.
The upcoming season will see the La Liga 2026-27 commence on August 15 and 16, with some players potentially returning to the team later than anticipated. The board is keen on ensuring that the squad is well-prepared for the season ahead, despite the alterations in their pre-season plans. As fans eagerly await more details regarding the matches and the team's lineup, the excitement continues to build for Barcelona's next chapter.
