“But we can’t afford to be in a situation where the guy is on the list but his club says no,” continued the former Arsenal and Barcelona player.

This departure reduces the group from 23 to 22 units, which is the size of the requested list. Among these 22 players, only the identity of the four reserves remains to be specified. The precise list will be announced this Wednesday evening to the players before being made public tomorrow (this Thursday).
