The return of Piqué, the great novelty of the list for Seville

Xavi Hernández’s commitment to the quarry is inexhaustible, and as a button shows: Sevilla takes a total of eight players from the subsidiary, Among those who stand out with their own light, Nico and Gavi, who are about to ‘sign’ for the first team, while others like Abde or Jutglà, are also pressing the accelerator. In fact, four more young people appear on the list: Peña, Ilias, Alvaro and Balde. Finally he has not called the forward of Juvenil A, Estanis Pedrola, despite the casualties he counts in attack: the last one, that of the Austrian Yusuf Demir, due to an upset stomach.

In addition, He is not in the call either, Sergiño Dest, that continues to drag discomfort in the adductors, while the central Gerard Piqué returns, after serving his penalty match.

In total, fifteen players from the first team and seven from the subsidiary will travel to the capital of Seville first thing in the morning. A game of maximum demand, where two players will have to measure their actions a lot, since they are one card away from the penalty. We are talking about Gavi and Sergio Busquets, who due to the way they play are in the ‘red zone’.

Xavi does not recover any of the injured. To those already mentioned Dest and Demir, we must add Fati, Pedri, Braithwaite, Memphis and Sergi Roberto, to complete a list of seven casualties.

Thus, the total list of players for the game against Sevilla (9:30 p.m.) at Sánchez Pizjuán is as follows: Ter Stegen, Neto, Mingueza, Piqué, Araújo, Lenglet, Eric, Umtiti, Alba, Sergio Busquets, Riqui Puig, Frenkie, Coutinho, Luuk, Dembélé, Peña, Nico, Gavi, Abde, Bucket, Jutglà, Alvaro and Ilias.

Another youth on stage: Pedrola exercises with the first team

Gavi’s fifth seems to have no limits. The Nico, Abde, Ilias, Balde and Jutglà have now been joined by an 18-year-old boy, who plays in Juvenil A, although he has also made his first steps with the Sergi Barjuan subsidiary. His name is Estanislau Pedrola, better known as ‘Estanis’. He arrived this summer, from Reus grassroots football, to sign for Óscar López’s Juvenil A, but very soon he began to emerge, to the point that he came to train with Ronald Koeman’s first team.

Estanis has returned to the scene again, but now from the hand of Xavi Hernández, who called him to participate in the afternoon session, prior to the match against Sevilla at the Sánchez Pizjuán, although he did not finally enter the call.
