Paulinho won't play against Betis because of bureaucratic problems
Posted Sunday, August 20, 2017 by Marca.com
Ernesto Valverde will not be able to call on Paulinho's services in Barcelona's season opener against Real Betis, bureaucratic issues to blame for the Brazilian's delayed start.
The two clubs have still not finished processing and exchanging all of the necessary documentation, leading to an embarrassing situation for the Catalans.
Andres Iniesta is still out, but Gerard Pique, who was doubtful after receiving a blow in the Supercopa de Espana, has been picked for the squad.
Full squad as follows:
Ter Stegen, Semedo, Pique, Rakitic, Sergio, Denis Suarez, Arda, Messi, Mascherano, Deulofeu, Paco Alcacer, Jordi Alba, Digne, Sergi Roberto, Andre Gomes, Aleix Vidal and Umtiti.
