"According to journalist Javi Miguel of AS, Barcelona have been handed a timely boost ahead of El Clasico as Frenkie de Jong and Andreas Christensen are both expected to recover in time for Sunday's clash against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu. It must be noted that the two players were notable absentees from training earlier today due to gastroenteritis, raising initial concern within Hansi Flick's squad."
"As such, Raphinha is making excellent progress and is expected to receive medical clearance by Saturday. If all goes well, the Brazilian winger will travel with the squad to Madrid and could be included in the matchday list. Ferran Torres has also fully recovered from his recent hamstring problem and has trained normally with the group. His sharpness in training has reportedly impressed Flick, and there's even a possibility that the forward could start at the Bernabeu."
Frenkie de Jong and Andreas Christensen are expected to recover in time for Sunday's Clasico at the Santiago Bernabeu after missing training earlier due to gastroenteritis. Christensen had already missed the Champions League game against Olympiacos because of the same issue. The next 48 hours are crucial to determine whether both players can return to full training and be cleared for selection. Raphinha is progressing well and is expected to receive medical clearance by Saturday, potentially travelling with the squad. Ferran Torres has fully recovered from a hamstring problem, trained normally, and could even start. Hansi Flick remains cautious but benefits from a near full-strength squad.
