Surprising and great novelty in the morning session this Tuesday. The Canary Pedri jumped to field 1 of Tito Vilanova along with the rest of his teammates when in principle he was totally ruled out for the Cup match. It must be remembered that the young talent suffered an elongation in the soleus of the left leg that pointed to a minimum of two weeks of absence. However, 48 hours after his injury, Pedri was already exercising with his teammates. It will be necessary to see if Koeman considers that he will be able to count on the Canarian player or has simply done part of the session with the group. In any case, This is very great news, since under normal conditions we would be talking about fifteen days off, but it seems clear that if he enters the list, the injury was much less than what the club announced at first.
However, The one who seems to be complicating his chances of being on the field this Wednesday is the central Ronald Araújo, who for the second day in a row has done prevention work on his left ankle. The defender, who left the field angry on Saturday after being replaced by Koeman after noticing a puncture in the ankle, is presented as the great unknown for the cup match.
The Bosnian Miralem Pjanic did not go out to the field either, which would already be ruled out, due to problems in the right ankle, as well as the long-term injured: Ansu Fati, Sergi Roberto and Philippe Coutinho.
The rest of the available players, including midfielder Ilaix Moriba, trained with the group. In any case, Koeman will not give the summoned list today, since he will wait for the morning session on Wednesday to offer the call.
