Barcelona U20 will go to Brazil to participate in an Intercontinental Youth Cup, opponent is Flamengo U20. According to Daily Sports, due to the unresolved issue of player registration, Barcelona coach Frick refused to let Dro, Tony, Gillette and Torrance go to Brazil to participate.

The game will be held on August 23rd, at the historic Maracana Stadium. As the champion of the 2024/2025 Youth Champions League, the Barcelona Youth Team led by Beletti will face the recent U20 champion of the South American Liberators Copa Liberta.

For this title, this temporary team formed by Barcelona (Barcelona B and Youth A players form the U20 echelon) is full of expectations. The team will travel to Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday morning and stay in Brazil until Sunday, during which they will be training for three days at the Sports City in Fruminense.

There is no doubt that if Beletti can call all U20 players, this team will be almost unrivaled. However, the game clashed with the time of the game against Levante, making it impossible for key players from the first team such as Kubasi, Yamal, Ford and Bernard to travel to Brazil.

However, Barcelona had considered taking Dro Ronaldo, Tony, Gillette and Torrance to Brazil, all of whom are currently in Frick's roster. But according to the latest news, the Germans decided to keep the four of them a few days ago. Each body said that this was because the registration issue was not resolved, and the registration of Gerald Martin, Badge and Szczesny was also pending, in addition to the registered Joan Garcia and Rashford.

Flick believes that the four players have been training with the team since July 14 and have begun to play (such as Torrance played for more than 20 minutes in the Mallorca game). Therefore, he decided to give priority to ensuring that the team is fully staffed within this week, rather than risking waiting for the registration issue to be resolved.

Drought and Torrence participated in the youth team's competition last season, especially full-back DeRo, who were both contributors to winning the Youth Champions League and qualifying for this InterContinental Cup. Tony and Gillette are completely focused on the reserve team game.
