After some long much deserved rest, FC Barcelona has started their pre-season tour. FC Barcelona will be first seen competing in the Wembley Cup against Totenham on friday 24th July. Guardiola has picked a 28 man squad for the trip to London. The squad contains 17 from senior squad and 11 from the youth and reserve teams. The squad list include Valdés, Pinto, Jorquera, Martín Cáceres, Víctor Sánchez, Henrique, Maxwell, Márquez, Abidal, Keita, Touré, Gudjohnsen, Hleb, Bojan, Henry, Messi, Pedro, Oriol, Dalmau, Montoya, Fontàs, Muniesa, Espasandín, Rueda, Santos, Jeffren, Rochina and Gai. Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta, Piqué, Busquets, Alves, Milito and Eto'o has been excluded from the squad and will only join mostly for the pre-season in US. It will be good to see how we cope the absence of two of our genius creative midfielders - Iniesta and xavi. Most probably Messi will be wearing the captain's armband.

Meanwhile Manchester City has been confirmed as the rival for FC Barcelona in the Joan Gamper Trophy match. The match will be held on the 19th of August at Camp Nou. Mean while there is no clarity about the Eto-Ibra deal. It seems like Eto's asking price of 12 million dollar a year is the road block for the swap.
