Internationals: Qualifiers & Friendlies

Geri and Cescy aren't wasting any time, now are they? Pique is back on the Spanish NT along with Puyol, Xavi and Busquets for their country's friendly against Macedonia; while several other Barca players have also left to join their national teams...

In other friendlies, Gudjohnsen and Iceland will face Slovakia; Messi and his country Argentina are up against Russia; Dani Alves joins Brazil for their meet with Estonia; Keita will participate in Mali's match with Burkina Faso; while Yaya Toure takes on Tunisia with his team, Ivory Coast. Zlatan Ibrahimovic will most likely miss out on Sweden's friendly against Finland, due to his injured hand.

Other players will be dealing with World Cup qualifiers, as Abidal goes off for France's match against the Faroe Islands, while his compatriot Thierry Henry will miss out due to injury. Rafa Marquez has also joined up with Mexico to face the United States, although his participation is doubtful due to his injury.
