The Barcelona squad will fly to London on Tuesday evening for the UEFA Champions League final, two days earlier than planned, due to the disruption to air travel caused by the ash cloud from an Icelandic volcano, the club said.
The club had intended to leave on Thursday for Saturday's final at Wembley against Manchester United.
"Due to the uncertainty caused by ash from the Grimsvoetn volcano, the first team of Barcelona will travel to London on Tuesday at 10pm," it said in a statement on its website Tuesday.
Airlines halted hundreds of flights on Tuesday after a plume of ash from an erupting Grimsvoetn volcano in Iceland blew over Britain.
For supporters wanting to travel to Wembley this week "it will be complicated," the club spokesman said. "For the moment we are keeping flight reservations and we plan to make alternative travel arrangements by coach," he said.
