Marc Guiu, among the 8 Barça players called up for the Under-17 World Cup

Barça loses eight youth players who have been called up for the U-17 World Cup to be held in Indonesia between November 10 and December 2. One of the eight is Marc Guiu (17 years old), scorer of Barcelona's victory over Athletic this past Sunday at 23 seconds on the day of his debut with the first team.

In addition to the Catalan striker, the culés who have been called to go to Indonesia to play in the World Cup are: Pau Prim, Héctor Fort, Pau Cubarsí, Andrés Cuenca, Marc Bernal, Quim Junyent and Juan Hernández

Therefore, soon, Xavi Hernández will not be able to count on Guiu, who had been a last resort that had turned out very well for him, although Robert Lewandowski's return after his injury is getting closer and closer.

The Barça team has the list of 21 players called up with eight players, double that of Real Madrid, in a team that will try to achieve the only universal title that the Spanish team, which has already been runner-up four times, is missing: in 1991, 2003, 2007 and 2017.

In the first phase, Spain will face Canada on the 11th at 10:00 a.m., Mali on the 13th also at 10:00 a.m. and Uzbekistan on the 16th at the same time. The competition starts on November 10 and ends on December 2. So if the team advances rounds in the tournament, the absence of the brilliant Barcelona debutant will continue over time.
