Inter Miami vs Barcelona SC Team News

Inter Miami manager Javier Mascherano has hinted at a strong starting eleven as he looks to fine-tune details ahead of the MLS season opener on 21 February. New Designated Player signing German Berterame, who joined for a reported USD 15 million in January, is expected to make his first start after a promising cameo in Medellin.

Barcelona SC, 16-time Ecuadorian champions, will provide a stern test. They are likely to feature young talent Allen Obando, who notably spent the 2025 season on loan at Inter Miami and will be facing his former teammates for the first time.
