Barcelona make the next stop on their Asian tour when they take on FC Seoul on Thursday.
Hansi Flick's side claimed a 3-1 win over Vissel Kobe at the weekend, with debutants Roony Bardghji and Dro Fernandez each on target after coming off the bench to win the game late on.
Marcus Rashford also made his Barca bow and Flick will look to share minutes around a talent-stacked squad that is relatively free of injuries.
Seoul FC are fourth in K League 1 after 24 games of the 2025 season and boast former Manchester United and England midfielder Jesse Lingard among their squad.
