Barcelona’s head coach, Hansi Flick, has unveiled the squad for Saturday’s La Liga match against Las Palmas, notably excluding forward Ansu Fati.
Despite being fit, Fati has been omitted from the lineup, continuing a trend of limited participation in recent matches. His last appearance was on January 3rd in the Copa del Rey, and he has featured in only four La Liga games this season.
The match is scheduled for Saturday, February 22, at the Estadio de Gran Canaria. Las Palmas, managed by Diego Martínez, is seeking its first victory of 2025 after a series of challenging results that have left them near the relegation zone. Conversely, Barcelona aims to maintain its position at the top of the league standings.
The game will be officiated by referee Adrián Cordero Vega, with Carlos del Cerro Grande overseeing VAR operations.
As Barcelona approaches this fixture, the continued absence of Ansu Fati raises questions about his future with the club, especially given his limited involvement in the current season.
