Hansi Flick, Barcelona's manager, has given some indications of his starting lineup for the match against Elche in the opening match of the Spanish football league next Sunday.
The Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo" reported that Hansi Flick continued to show confidence in some players during the pre-season friendly matches for the new season.
A number of Barcelona players are expected to be absent from the team's starting lineup, as they were anticipated to participate but have not yet reached full physical fitness.
The Spanish national team players who won the World Cup are not yet ready to enter the starting lineup, having trained with Barcelona for only a week and a half. Juan Garcia and Eric Garcia are the only exceptions.
Barcelona goalkeeper Juan Garcia did not suffer from fatigue in the World Cup, as he was not relied upon by De la Fuente, alongside Eric Garcia, who only played the final minutes of the final match against Argentina.
Hamza Abdel Karim is the most involved forward for Barcelona, despite being substituted in the Joan Gamper Trophy match and replaced by Anthony Gordon.
Barcelona's expected lineup against Elche in the Spanish league:
Goalkeeper: Juan Garcia
Defense: Eric Garcia - Christensen - Gerard Martin - Alejandro Balde
Midfield: Marc Bernal - Xavi Espart - Fermín López
Attack: Lamine Yamal or Karim Adeyemi - Raphinha - Hamza Abdel Karim.
