  /  autty

Six youngsters have been involved with the first team since they returned to training last week.

B team players Ansu Fati, Riqui Puig, Alex Collado, Ronald Araujo, Inaki Pena and Monchu have all trained under Quique Setien's orders.

As a result, these six players are not expected to be available to Xavi Pimienta for Barcelona B's Segunda B playoffs, whenever they take place.

It will be Setien who decides who he wants to keep in the first team when the season resumes.

Instead, eight players from the Juvenil A side - Barcelona's Under-19s - will be promoted to the B team.

They are Ilaix Moriba, Konrad de la Fuente, Mika Marmol, Nils Mortimer, Peque, Alvaro Sanz, Nico Gonzalez and Jaume Jordi.

Barcelona B are set to take on a fourth-placed team in the first round of the play-offs, with the likes of Real Valladolid Promesas, Pena Deportiva Santa Eulalia and Yeclano all possible opponents.
