Barcelona’s preparations for the new season have suffered a setback this weekend after confirmation that the club’s next scheduled friendly has been called off.
Hansi Flick’s side had only just played in front of supporters for the first time this summer on Friday. After travelling to England for a pre-season training camp, the Blaugrana eventually went down to Birmingham City in a penalty shootout.
The next item on the schedule was another friendly on Monday, this time against Birmingham’s Championship rivals Preston North End.
However, on the eve of the match, Flick and his squad were informed that the fixture would no longer take place as planned. According to a report from Mundo Deportivo:
“The match has been cancelled because the Blaugrana’s opponents have several players unavailable and were set to field a large squad of Under-21 players.”
Barcelona will now hold an unplanned training session on Monday instead.
