Xavi summons 27 players, recovers Dest and Abde, and keeps Memphis and Aubameyang on the list
Barça has provided the call for a friendly match against Manchester City. Xavi Hernández has summoned 27 footballers, practically the entire squad, although he has left out Martin Braithwaite and Samuel Umtiti, two players he told in May that he did not have them and they have not yet found a destination.
The coach, on the other hand, has recovered Sergiño Dest, who had been left out of the first league calls. Although the full-back is also transferable, it is clear that his situation is different from that of Braithwaite and Umtiti and if a right-back does not arrive, he could continue. Abde also returns to the list and Pablo Torre remains, who already traveled with the first team to Anoeta.

The two players who are negotiating their departure, Memphis Depay and Aubameyang, remain in the squad for now. They traveled to Anoeta but none played. As tonight is a friendly match, there will be minutes for almost everyone.
