Barcelona could play Liverpool in a friendly in Kenya as pre-season plans take shape With the 2025/26 season in its final stage, FC Barcelona are already planning for the upcoming summer. While strategies are being drawn up to improve the squad in the transfer window, the Blaugrana are also working on finalising plans for the teamโ€™s pre-season training. As has already been reported , a tour to the USA or Asia, like in recent years, will not be taking place this summer.

Instead, Hansi Flick & co. hopes to have a training camp closer to home base, prioritising the health and comfort of players. However, those at the boardroom level see things differently.

Pre-season plans close to being finalised SPORTโ€™s Carlos Monfort has now come forward with an extensive report detailing what Barcelona are planning for the pre-season camp, with a friendly against Liverpool possibly on the cards. This morning, during the board meeting held at the club offices, one of the central topics was precisely the planning of the summer training camp. Although the matter was quite advanced, some details still needed to be finalised.

The different positions within the club regarding the location had created some uncertainty, making it necessary to reach a definitive decision. On one hand, the coaching staff led by Flick favoured preparation in a nearby environment, with the intention of avoiding long journeys and ensuring facilities that offer the best conditions for physical work. Barcelona could face Liverpool in pre-season.
