Pedri, Eric Garcia and Òscar Mingueza have all been named in the Spanish U23 side that will be competing at the Tokyo Olympics this summer from July 22 to August 7.

This continues a long history of Barça presence at the games, with 29 players having competed from 1920 to the most recent edition at Rio 2016. Between them, they have amassed 7 gold medals, 8 silvers and one bronze.
