Barcelona’s first preseason friendly ahead of the 2024/25 season takes place in less than two weeks when the Blaugrana play Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City in Orlando, followed by El Clásico against Real Madrid in New Jersey and a meeting with AC Milan in Baltimore in a span of seven days. And if you were hoping to see Barça’s teenage superstar during the Blaugrana’s week in America, he won’t be there.
That’s according to Mundo Deportivo, who report that Lamine Yamal will be given his full three-week vacation for reaching the Final of Euro 2024 along with his national teammates Ferran Torres and Pedri, who is expected to stay in Catalonia anyway to continue the treatment for his knee injury.
