De Jong returns to a list a month later

Quique Setién has summoned a total of 20 footballers: 16 from the first team and four from the subsidiary. From the list for this Thursday's game against Osasuna highlights the presence of Frenkie de Jong. The Dutchman, who was discharged after the morning session, he had been out of the field for a month due to a soleus injury to his right leg, thus losing a total of seven games. In fact, the last time he entered a list goes back to June 15, facing the game against Leganes at Camp Nou, who incidentally no longer played, staying the ninety minutes on the bench for the first time this season.

Apart from De Jong, Setién has two new faces for this Thursday's game: Arthur, recovered from the tonsillitis that left him in Barcelona the previous day, and Ansu Fati, after completing his sanction match at Pucela.

The injured Antoine Griezmann and Samuel Umtiti are not in the call, who have already said goodbye to this League, with Ousmane Dembéle, who is not even enrolled and continues with his recovery process.

A list, by the way, that has a total of seven players on the verge of suspension: Leo Messi, Luis Suárez, Ivan Rakitic, Arturo Vidal, Martin Braithwaite, Gerard Piqué and Junior Firpo. Whoever sees a yellow card this Thursday will have already said goodbye this season to LaLiga, the Danish striker being the most paradigmatic case, because a card against Osasuna would mean his final goodbye this season since he was not registered in the Champions League.

The complete call for players for this Thursday's game against Osasuna (9pm) is: Ter Stegen, Neto, Semedo, Sergi Roberto, Piqué, Alba, Lenglet, Junior, Sergio Busquets, De Jong, Vidal, Rakitic, Braithwaite, Griezmann, Suárez, Messi, Ansu Fati, Riqui Puig, Araujo and Tenas.
