Barkley, tipped by many at the club as the best prospect since a certain Wayne Rooney, suffered a double leg break whilst on international duty last year. He has been regaining his fitness in pre-season training, but a bruised ankle sustained on the trip to Austria has slowed his recovery.
At a press conference ahead of the game against Philadelphia, manager David Moyes said: "He rolled his ankle in Austria so he's missed a week's training.
"We will be careful with him. He is with us just now but I don't think he is ready to play. We will just need to work with him and see how it is."
