The 59th holding of the preseason cup, the traditional curtain-raiser to the blaugrana season
Monday 12 August is no ordinary day. It’s Gamper day! New FC Barcelona coach Hansi Flick appears at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys for the very first time, and just one week before the competitive season kicks off with a Liga visit to Valencia. And neither is this any ordinary Gamper, for it is heralding in a very special season at the club, which which in three month’s time will be celebrating its 125th anniversary and moving back to the new-look Spotify Camp Nou.
But until then, home games like this one will continue at Montjuic. Fittingly, today’s guests as are also celebrating an anniversary, in their case none other than their centenary. AS Monaco, runners-up to PSG in last season’s French championship, are the Gamper guests for the very first time.
