With less than an hour left before the kickoff, Barcelona new manager Hansi Flick has announced the starting lineup that will take the field against AS Monaco in the Joan Gamper Trophy match at the Montjuic Stadium.
Marc-Andre ter Stegen, the official first captain of Barça, starts in goal against the Ligue 1 club and will be shielded by the centre-back pairing of Andreas Christensen and Inigo Martinez.
Jules Kounde and Alejandro Balde occupy the two full-back slots for the hosts.
Meanwhile, Flick has opted for a very youthful midfield as Marc Bernal and Marc Casado, two of the biggest positives from the pre-season, pair up as the double pivot. Meanwhile, Pablo Torre, back after missing the AC Milan friendly, starts as the No. 10.
Robert Lewandowski leads the line as the centre-forward for Barcelona and will have support from the wide areas coming from Raphinha and new arrival Pau Victor, who has been the breakout star of the pre-season.
Big signing Dani Olmo is on the bench and is expected to make his unofficial debut at some point during the game. Players like Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsi will also feature.
