Barça are now on their way to Tbilisi. The blaugrana party left El Prat Airport in Barcelona at 9.25am CET on a charter flight that will take them to Georgia where they face Sevilla in the European Super Cup final. The flight is expected to take around five hours with arrival on Georgian soil expected around 4.00pm local time. Georgia is some two hours ahead of Central European time. Once in Tbilisi the party will head to the hotel before leaving for the Dinamo Arena.

The first day will be one of frenetic activity. Luis Enrique, Andrés Iniesta and Dani Alves will appear in a press conference after which the squad will train at the Boris Pachiadze Stadium where the final will be played.

Luis Enrique has included 25 players for the trip to Tbilisi, including the injured Douglas and Jordi Alba and the two players who are unavailable until January, Arda Turan and Aleix Vidal. The only man not making the trip is Neymar, who was diagnosed with parotitis (mumps) on Sunday and will be out of action for two weeks as a result.

The FC Barcelona party will be led by president Josep Maria Bartomeu and he will be accompanied by sporting vice president Jordi Mestre, vice president of the financial area, Susana Monje and the board members Silvio Elías and Emil Rousaud.
