As 2025 approaches, Barcelona will kick off the new year with an exciting match against Barbastro in the Copa del Rey, a highly anticipated fixture that promises to be a dream come true for the home team and its fans.

In their previous encounter last year in this prestigious tournament, Barcelona narrowly defeated Barbastro with a thrilling scoreline of 3-2, showcasing the competitive spirit and talent of both teams.

Ahead of this eagerly awaited matchup, players from Barbastro have expressed their excitement and shared which Barcelona stars they are most eager to trade shirts with after the game concludes.

Unsurprisingly, Lamine Yamal is at the top of the wishlist for many Barbastro players, highlighting his rising star status and the admiration he garners from aspiring footballers.

Let’s delve into the full list of shirt requests that have emerged from the Barbastro camp:

Unfortunately for Barbastro, Yamal is not expected to participate in the match due to an ankle injury, which means fans will have to wait to see him back in action on the field.

While Barcelona hopes for Yamal‘s swift recovery, the team is cautious and aims not to rush him back into play, especially with the upcoming Spanish Super Cup match against Athletic Club looming.

The lineup that Hansi Flick will present for the game against Barbastro is anticipated to spark interest among fans and analysts alike. This game offers a valuable opportunity for squad rotation, but Flick is aware that Barbastro will undoubtedly provide a formidable challenge.
