The names of Barcelona players will be written at the back of their jersey in Chinese as they face Real Madrid in another El Classico this Wednesday.
The break from traditional is to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
Barcelona will also be traveling to Asia to meet their fans in Japan and China this summer.
Lionel Messi is however doubtful to feature in the game due to injury despite being named in the squad for the semi-final first leg.
Barcelona will now have to wait till last moment to decide if he would play.
“It is true that sometimes we have had doubts with players and we have waited until the last moment,” said manager Ernesto Valverde.
“It’s the same with Messi.”
