Gamper Trophy 2025: Barcelona-Como, the likely lineups

Barcelona and Como will compete on Sunday night for the Gamper Trophy, a highly prestigious summer friendly and a great classic of the Blaugrana pre-season preparation. For this edition, the Catalans have invited precisely the Como team coached by their legend Cesc Fabregas. It will be played at the Estadi Johan Cruijff at 8:30 p.m., with the possibility of watching the match on Como TV.

Flick is expected to line up his Barcelona side with the usual Robert Lewandowski as the only point and supported by a battery of trequartisti consisting of Lamine Yamal, Dani Olmo and Raphinha. In the midfield De Jong and Pedri, side lanes entrusted to Koundé and Balde. In defense, in front of Garcia, ready Araujo and Cubarsí.

The great former, Cesc Fabregas, should instead return to Barcelona deploying his Como with a trident. At the center of the attack, confirmation for Douvikas, with Addai and Diao in support. Midfield full of quality with Perrone in the middle and the Baturina-Nico Paz duo on his sides. In front of Butez ready Vojvoda on the right, Valle on the left and the Van der Brempt-Kempf pair in the center.
