Few novelties in the list that Ronald Koeman has offered after the morning session of activation this Thursday. The only one, the return to the squad of midfielder Miralem Pjanic, who was low against Villarreal due to a sore right knee. In any case, the Bosnian, who received a medical discharge this morning, is playing a testimonial role in this final stretch of the course: he has disappeared from the eleven since the Dutch coach has bet on the 3-5-2 in the field. In the last 22 games he has played just over 400 minutes.
In addition, Koeman will not condition his eleven for the players who have warned of sanction. In fact, he has been systematically lining up Messi and De Jong for more than two months, despite being one card away from the penalty. The last day, against Villarreal, two more players were added to this list: Griezmann and Mingueza.
In another list, that of the infirmary, the Danish forward Braithwaite remains, who is recovering from a sprained right ankle, while both Fati and Coutinho have already said goodbye to the season. Koeman has included four players from the subsidiary (Tenas, Mingueza, Konrad and Ilaix) in the squad, but not the Brazilian Matheus, who has not yet debuted this season in LaLiga.
The complete list of footballers to play this Thursday (19 hours) against Granada at the Camp Nou is made up of: Ter Stegen, Neto, Dest, Junior, Lenglet, Piqué, Sergi Roberto, Araújo, Alba, Umtiti, De Jong, Busquets , Pjanic, Pedri, Riqui Puig, Griezmann, Messi, Dembélé, Trincao, Peña, Ilaix, Konrad and Mingueza.
