The Barça women's squad have arrived in London ready for Saturday's 1.30pm CEST kick-off against Chelsea in the UEFA Women's Champions League semi-final first leg at Stamford Bridge. They trained as normal at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper and then left for a flight at 6pm local time to Stansted. They were joined on the trip by the director responsible for women's football Xavier Puig.
There are 26 players in the travelling party after Claudia Pina and Asisat Oshoala were both declared fit in time for the game, with Maria Pérez and Vicky López of the reserves also in the squad. Alexia Putellas is also making the trip despite still being injured.
There will be an official media conference on Friday at 11.15am CEST featuring head coach Jonatan Giráldez and England international Lucy Bronze, and the players will also get the chance to train on the pitch that will be used for the game the following day.
