"The positive was that star midfielder Pedri, who has been out since late October, trained with the group, with everything suggesting that he will receive the medical green light for the weekend La Liga clash vs Alaves. However, the Blaugrana lost fellow midfielder Fermin Lopez to a muscle injury, which will keep him out of action for two weeks. The expectation is for the La Masia gem to return for the Champions League clash vs Eintracht Frankfurt on 9 December."
"Given that he has only resumed training with the group two days before the game, Javi Miguel of AS confirms that Pedri is unlikely to start on Saturday against Alaves. The plan is that the midfield superstar will play about 15-20 minutes in the second half of the contest at the renovated Spotify Camp Nou. It will allow the Spanish international to get into some form of rhythm before the all-important La Liga fixture against Atletico Madrid next week."
Pedri has resumed group training after a hamstring injury suffered in the first El Clásico and is expected to be medically cleared for the La Liga match against Alavés. He is unlikely to start and is planned to play about 15–20 minutes in the second half to regain rhythm ahead of the Atletico Madrid fixture. Fermin López has suffered a muscle injury that will sideline him for approximately two weeks, with an expected return for the Champions League match against Eintracht Frankfurt on 9 December. Pedri missed five games while injured.
