The A-Leagues All Stars squad has been revised and confirmed for Wednesday’s blockbuster game against La Liga giants FC Barcelona at Accor Stadium in Sydney.
21 players have been confirmed in Dwight Yorke’s final squad in the clash against Barca, with Western Sydney Wanderers defender Jack Rodwell named as Captain.
There are changes from the 30-player list, primarily as a result of the finalists being confirmed as Melbourne City and Western United in Saturday’s Isuzu UTE A-League Grand Final.

City quartet Mathew Leckie, Jamie Maclaren, Marco Tilio and Curtis Good and Western United’s Jamie Young, Ben Garuccio and Leo Lacroix will no longer participate as they prepare for Saturday’s Grand Final in Melbourne.
Injuries have forced Adelaide United captain Craig Goodwin and Melbourne Victory pair Jake Brimmer and Roderick Miranda to withdraw, while Newcastle Jets forward Beka Mikeltadze is out of the squad due to personal reasons.
