It took a long time, but finally Ansu Fati has received a medical discharge and has entered the squad for the match against Mallorca at the Camp Nou. A return expected by all Barcelona fans, since since last January 20 that Ansu has not been able to help the team due to muscle injury. Three months later, the attacker is once again at the disposal of Xavi Hernández, although the coach has already announced that the idea is for him to gradually join the team, so everything indicates that he will debut in LaLiga this year playing about 15 or 20 minutes. In addition, he could do it as a center forward and not on the left wing, in order to avoid excessive efforts at the first change.
Also it is in the list Ousmane Dembélé, who has recovered in time from a tonsillitis that prevented him from participating in the morning session on Saturday. In any case, the forecast is that he starts on the bench and comes out in the second half. Gerard Piqué has also entered at the last minute and joins Samuel Umtiti on the list of recovered central defenders ‘in extremis’ for tonight’s match.
The injured are not in the call Pedri, Sergi Roberto, Sergiño Dest and Nicowho have practically said goodbye to the season, nor Mingueza and Braithwaite, with Covid.
Special attention for three Barcelona players, who are on the verge of suspension. And it is that if Sergio Busquets, Eric Garcia or Frenkie de Jong see a yellow card this Sunday they will not be able to be in Seville the next day.
Thus, the list of players that are part of the list for this Sunday’s match against Mallorca (9:00 p.m.) at the Camp Nou is as follows: Ter Stegen, Neto, Pique, AraújoUmtiti, Alves, Eric, Alba, lenglet, Sergio Busquets, frenkie, Riqui Puig, Dembélé, Memphis, Adama, LukeAnsu, Aubameyang, Ferran, Hold on y Gavi.
