On September 22 (Beijing time), according to Javier Miguel, a Catalan journalist from AS, Barcelona manager Flick has planned to give a 9-day break to the remaining players at the club. The break will run from September 26 to October 4.

The three-week international break will inevitably affect the fixture schedules of various clubs. Barcelona, with 16 players called up during this period, faces significant impact across all departments. Competitively, the team has recorded eight consecutive wins in official matches, demonstrating strong momentum, and this break also affects training load management and player recovery plans.

Given these circumstances and with the next match not until October 10 against Getafe at Spotify Camp Nou, Flick has made a series of important arrangements. According to AS, the key decision is to give the remaining Barcelona players a 9-day break. Four injured players — De Jong, Joan Garcia, Balde, and Christensen — will continue treatment (the Dutch midfielder is expected to return to on-field training by then, while Garcia will undergo rehabilitation work on the sidelines and near the goal area). Other players will enjoy the break.

This includes Barcelona's latest signing, Brazilian forward Jesus, as well as Szczesny, Balde, Gerard Martín, Gavi, and Fariñas. As a result, they will only train for four days this week — Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday — before beginning their break and reconvening on Monday, October 5, after 9 days. Even then, Flick will still not have all international players available. For example, the Spanish national team, which includes seven Barcelona players, will play Croatia in UEFA Nations League A, Matchday 4, on Tuesday, October 6 (02:45 Wednesday, October 7, Beijing time).
