Barça lose 11 internationals as de Jong returns after the World Cup

In Barça's training, it was confirmed that Frenkie de Jong, also known as Jong, will return to play with the Netherlands national team four and a half months after the World Cup, according to EFE and journalist Sergi Solé.

The absences of Rodrigo Hernández, Dani Olmo and Jules Koundé, combined with the long‑term injury of Roony Bardghji, together with the lack of medical clearance for Eric Garcia and Andreas Christensen until a few hours before their possible appearance in the second half of the Atlético‑Barça match, will force Hansi Flick to rely only on eleven first‑team internationals during this international window with a double match date (WITH COUNTRIES).

During the league break at the end of September and early October, sixteen players left, while Joan Garcia, Cubarsí, Pedri, Fermín and Lamine Yamal will be called up by Spain, although Yamal will only play against England on Sunday in Madrid and will rejoin the group during the week.
