Barcelona Announce Squad for Champions League Clash Against Chelsea, Rashford Back in Action
Barcelona have named their squad for Tuesday’s UEFA Champions League encounter with Chelsea, welcoming back Marcus Rashford after his recent bout of flu.
The match will take place at Stamford Bridge at 9 PM on November 25, 2025, with both teams aiming for a vital win in the group stage. Rashford, 28, missed Barcelona’s 4‑0 LaLiga triumph over Athletic Club last weekend but has now been cleared to travel with the squad.
Midfielder Pedri, however, will not be available. Club officials confirmed that he was evaluated on Monday but is still recovering from injury, ruling him out of the clash.
Barcelona manager Hansi Flick faces mounting pressure after a disappointing 3‑3 draw against Olympiacos in their previous Champions League outing. Tactical tweaks are expected as the German coach looks to steer Barça back to winning form.
