After Nearly Two-Month Absence, Raphinha Returns for Camp Nou Match
Coach Hansi Flick led Barcelona's first training session yesterday, Wednesday, with all international players participating. This comes two days before their La Liga clash against Athletic Bilbao this Saturday at Camp Nou.
Marcus Rashford was absent from training but was present at the club's sports city. Pedri continues his individual training and remains unavailable, while Lamine Yamal is undergoing recovery procedures.
In contrast, Raphinha completed his third consecutive group training session and will be available for selection after missing nine matches due to an injury sustained on September 25.
Barcelona currently sits second in La Liga with 28 points from 12 matches, three points behind leaders Real Madrid. They are set to face Chelsea in the Champions League next Tuesday.
