As AS has learned, Gerard Piqué is by no means ruled out for the game against Rayo Vallecano this Sunday. Despite the fact that the central defender spent a good part of the match against Real Sociedad conditioned by his discomfort in the left adductor, he does not seem willing to take a step back at this point in the season. In fact, Piqué intends to test himself in the morning session this Saturday and if the sensations are good, he will enter the call and will be in the eleven. Ronald Araújo will also be tested, after confirming that he does not suffer a serious injury to his right knee, so it cannot be ruled out that this pair of central defenders will repeat in the match against Rayo.
But Xavi Hernández still expects more good news ahead of this Saturday’s call. And it is that according to ‘Mundo Deportivo’ and has been able to confirm AS, Both Sergi Roberto and Samuel Umtiti and Sergi Roberto could be discharged. It must be remembered that the French central defender was injured in mid-January, undergoing surgery for a fracture in his right foot, while the case of the youth squad is even more damaging, since he had to undergo surgery at the end of the year for a rectal injury femoral of the right thigh that was taking him to a dead end after suffering two relapses.
Who will not be there yet, although everything indicates that his return is already a matter of days, is Ansu Fati. As this newspaper advanced, the club continues to be very cautious in managing his recovery and They have decided to delay their reappearance for another week, already thinking about the match against Mallorca at the Camp Nou on May 1, in order to be able to minimize the risks of a relapse, which would lead the player to the operating room.
