Confirmed: Riqui Puig will be included in the squad when Barcelona clash with Villarreal

The Catalans host the Yellow Submarine on Sunday.

"Riqui Puig will be called up for tomorrow [Villarreal game]," Ronald Koeman said during the pre-match presser on Saturday.

Earlier this month Koeman advised the midfielder to spend the 2020/21 season on loan elsewhere.

The 21-year-old, however, reportedly decided to stay at Camp Nou as he wants to prove the new head coach wrong.

Barca take on Villarreal in their first official game under Koeman on Sunday.
