FANS have called on Barcelona to delete a “cringe” video previewing their pre-season friendly against Arsenal.
Stars from both clubs took part in the video to promote their upcoming match at the SoFi Stadium in California, USA.
Arsenal stars Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli took part in the video along with Barca pair Pedri and Aleix Balde.
The foursome share a pretend FaceTime conversation with 20-year-old Pedri highlighting the “young talents” that will be on show.
Martinelli claimed he was “buzzing” for the clash but fans do not share his enthusiasm.
Supporters have blasted the Instagram video as “cringe” with the scripted dialogue appearing very forced.
One said: “Delete before it’s too late ????”
Another added: “Holy cringe.”
A third said: “This was the most horrible acting ????”
And another commented: “I physically cringed watching that.”
