Barcelona key defender returns to group training; two stars await medical clearance before Elche clash | Barca Universal
"Pau Cubarsi returned to group training after having not been involved in sessions over the past couple of days, confirms Mundo Deportivo. After Tuesday's rest day, Cubarsi was granted special permission by the coaching staff not to train on Wednesday. On Thursday, he reported to the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper, but was not a part of the group session and worked in the gym instead."
"Meanwhile, Robert Lewandowski and Dani Olmo also trained as usual today and are expected to receive medical clearance in the next couple of days to be included in the squad to face Elche. Both Lewandowski and Olmo returned from the international break with injuries, but resumed training with the group this week. Having successfully completed multiple sessions, the pair is now poised to receive the green light from the medical department and be included in the squad to face Eder Sarabia's side this weekend."
Pau Cubarsi rejoined group training after a brief period of individual work that formed part of a scheduled workload management plan rather than treatment for any physical issue. He missed a session with special permission following a rest day, worked in the gym on Thursday, and then trained normally under Hansi Flick, making him expectedly available for the match at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys. Robert Lewandowski and Dani Olmo resumed group training following injuries sustained during the international break and have completed multiple sessions, positioning them to receive medical clearance. Several key players remain unavailable, and Joan Garcia has returned to pitch work but is unlikely to be risked against Elche.
