Friday 24-7-2026 Football Match Schedules: Barcelona Face Europa as Hamza Abdel Karim Awaits Debut
Eight Pre-Season Friendlies Headline Friday's Football Action Across Europe and Beyond
Friday, July 24, 2026, brings a packed slate of pre-season friendly matches as clubs across Europe and the Middle East continue preparations for the upcoming season. The headline fixture sees Spanish giants Barcelona take on Europa FC at 9:00 PM (Egypt/Saudi time), with all eyes on a potential debut for Egyptian striker Hamza Abdel Karim.
Barcelona's pre-season tour has generated significant interest following several new signings, and the match against Gibraltar-based Europa FC provides an opportunity for manager Hansi Flick to test his squad depth. The potential involvement of Hamza Abdel Karim, who joined Barcelona's youth setup earlier this year, has added extra intrigue for Arab football fans.

The Blaugrana face Europa FC in what is expected to be one of the most-watched friendlies today, largely due to the possibility of seeing the young Egyptian talent make his first appearance in a Barcelona shirt. Hamza Abdel Karim has been training with the first team during pre-season and reports suggest he could feature in tonight's fixture.
