In addition, Barcelona's two other friendly matches in Korea are also at risk of being canceled for the same reason. According to the schedule, Yamal and his teammates will play a friendly match with Vissel Kobe club on July 27, at Noevir Stadium in the match celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Japanese team's founding.
After that, Hansi Flick and his team will fly to Korea to play a friendly match with FC Seoul on July 31, and then Daegu on August 4. However, everything is still open.
FC Barcelona announced that the team has been forced to temporarily suspend participation in the match scheduled to take place next Sunday in Japan due to the organizer's serious breach of contract.
However, if the organizer meets certain conditions, the club will consider adjusting the summer tour in Korea, where there are two matches against FC Seoul (31 July) and Daegu FC (4 August).
If the organizer meets these conditions, the club will visit Korea in the coming days. FC Barcelona regrets this incident and the impacts it will have on many Barca fans in Japan, quoted from the Barcelona club's announcement on July 24.
As for Vissel Kobe, they said they are checking the situation and will make a statement after collecting enough information. In addition, the Japanese team also apologized to fans for waiting for the friendly match with Barca, but it was eventually canceled.
Barcelona is a very popular club in Asia. The Spanish tour is carefully scheduled for the new season, as this is an opportunity for them to introduce new players, including Marcus Rashford - who has just moved on loan from Man United.
In case they do not compete in Japan and Korea, Barcelona must choose another friendly option. It is expected that by August 10, Barca will have another friendly match against Como (Italy), in the Joan Gamper Cup match.
