Samuel Eto'o will join his national team for the African Nations Cup in Ghana after January 12, about a week later than expected.
The 26-year-old will play for Barcelona against Sevilla on January 9 before facing Murcia three days later.
Barcelona coach Franck Rijkaard told a news conference on Friday that they had reached an agreement with Cameroon to delay the striker's departure.
But midfielder Yaya Toure will join his Ivory Coast team-mates on Monday.
With both Argentina's Lionel Messi and Brazil's Ronaldinho unavailable due to injury, Barcelona are relying heavily on Eto'o for their firing power.
Eto'o and Toure could be absent for about one month, depending on how their teams progress in the tournament which runs from 20 January to 10 February.
