FC Barcelona schedule for August 1 to 7

FC Barcelona are into a new week of the preseason, fresh from their training camp at St. George’s Park and with ten more first team members back from vacation and raring to get back to club duty after playing for their respective countries at Euro 2016 or the Copa America.

The next seven days will involve sessions at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper and trips to Sweden and England for the second and third games in the International Champions Cup.

The first is on Wednesday in Stockholm against surprise Premier League champions Leicester City and after two days back in the familiar surroundings of Barcelona, the team heads for London and a date at Wembley with Liverpool FC.

Sunday is a day off for the squad, but they’ll back at it the days after to prepare for a week that involves the Joan Gamper Trophy game with Sampdoria and the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup.
