Diego Simeone's comments today seem to put a move for Julian Alvarez to bed, while Ferran also seems destined for PSG.
Who should FC Barcelona pursue as their new number 9, or is an in-house 'false nine' solution better?

@Lexisfcb007 The €40 million talked about wouldn't be bad business at all!

[The 1899 @The1899FCB]

Marc Casadó will NOT travel to Udine to play the triangular. FC Barcelona's next exit?

[The 1899 @The1899FCB]

@T_Mauno Surely they can in one of the (half) games

[The 1899 @The1899FCB]

Bon dia, Culers! It's a game of two halves this evening, as FC Barcelona take on Udinese and Nottingham Forest in a good old-fashioned triangular.

Who or what are you most looking forward to seeing in the Friuli Venezia Giulia Cup?

[The 1899 @The1899FCB]

@ClassicLitmanen @Timbigomis18 Easy mistake to make!

[The 1899 @The1899FCB]

@Ewulogbo_Temi Too right!

[The 1899 @The1899FCB]

FC Barcelona will do something for the first time in 24 years tonight by playing a good old triangular.

You'd have to go back to the 2002/2003 preseason to find the last.

In Amsterdam, recent summer signing Juan Román Riquelme impressed by scoring two during a 4-2 win over Parma.

To the home team Ajax, though, Louis Van Gaal's side lost 4-3. 🧵

[The 1899 @The1899FCB]

Our first ever triangular? That was in 1947 at Mallorca's iconic Es Fortí ground.

Barça beat the hosts 3-0 before trouncing Atlético Madrid 6-0.

With six goals in two matches, it's no surprise that Manuel Badenes finished as top scorer.

@warden305 Thank you!

FC Barcelona have just announced another preseason friendly. They'll travel to Basel on August 16, just a few days out before the Gamper at Camp Nou...
