Quique Setién is seeing in the first line of fire that the reports that the club has on the risk of injury, once the competition resumes after two months of confinement, were not a trivial threat. In this preseason start you have already seen how A total of five players had to withdraw from training due to discomfort or direct injuries. The last one was the Portuguese defender, Nelson Semedo, who did not work out with the group this Saturday due to discomfort in his right knee (cartilage). Neither did Leo Messi, which was expected with expectation in the session. Messi is progressing in his recovery process after suffering a contracture in the quadriceps of the right leg (official version) -other sources point to a micro-rupture in the adductor of his right leg- that has prevented him from participating in the last three trainings with the group. In principle, it is expected that on Monday he can already be exercising, at least part of the session, with his colleagues. This Saturday he trained separately. It must be remembered that Ansu Fati did not exercise with the group on Friday – complete prevention work on his patellar tendons – while the branch midfielder, Monchu, is today the most serious case in the infirmary, suffering a break muscle that will leave you a month off the pitch.
Today's session had the special incentive of launching a new stage: the Camp Nou. We must remember that since March 7, when Barcelona beat Real Sociedad 1-0, that the blaugrana did not step on the blaugrana coliseum. Quique Setién has taken advantage of the situation to organize a match between the 24 players available, eight of them from the subsidiary. The team will have a rest day this Sunday and will return on Monday at 9.30 am to prepare for Saturday's game against Mallorca on June 13 against Mallorca in Son Moix.
