Once the invitations to the World Cup selectors are known, only eight Barcelona players from the current Barcelona squad will be left without going to the big event in Qatar.
They are Inaki Peña, Hector Bellerin, Marcos Alonso, Alejandro Baldi, Sergi Roberto, Gerard Pique, Frank Casey and Pablo Torri. Among them, Xavi Hernandez will be able to count on only four players on December 5 when the team returns to training
Inaki Peña, Hector Bellerin, Marcos Alonso and Alejandro Balde are the four players who will not participate in the World Cup and will be able to be on the field when work resumes.

Gerard Pique just retired. And Pablo Toure, if there is no news about it, will join the Barcelona Athletic team to compete. In principle, although they can do so per record, Inaki and Baldi are not expected to play for the subsidiary during the World Cup
