La incógnita Keidi Bare

For the third time since he has been a Espanyol player, Keidi Bare has arrived from international commitments with Albania with discomfort. The midfielder, a passionate player, on the road and who does not negotiate the effort, is a doubt for this Saturday’s match against Barcelona. They were not clarified either in Vicente Moreno’s press conference (“we have to wait even for tomorrow”) or in the 15 minutes of training open to the press, in which the Albanian warmed up with his teammates.

His presence seems practically impossible, since he has not completed any training with the group except the latter and the coach can choose variants that have been prepared for the meeting in the last two weeks. David López or Manu Morlanes are the main options, although the captain is better positioned due to his more defensive profile, taking into account the possession of the ball that he will want have the new Barcelona of Xavi Hernández.

This last session, with Cornellà’s night falling, took place in the blue and white stadium. The rest of the players except Óscar Gil participated, so no new setbacks are foreseen. He also exercised with his particular black hat to cover himself from the cold Miguel Llambrich. Vicente Moreno finished outlining the strategy to cancel the debut of the new Barcelona coach and be able to surpass the Catalans in the table.
