"However, according to SPORT, key winger Raphinha did not train with the rest of the group today. Despite his absence, the Brazilian international has not been ruled out of travelling to Anoeta, and Flick will confirm his decision at the press conference. The Brazilian did travel with his teammates to the Ciutat Esportiva and trained individually in the gym after feeling some discomfort, but he did not take part in the session on the pitch."
"In addition to Raphinha, Dro also did not train. The La Masia teenager has already decided to leave Barcelona during this winter transfer window and will pay his €6 million release clause in the coming days, with PSG set to sign him. In contrast, Marc-Andre ter Stegen did train with his teammates, despite his loan move to Girona being virtually finalised."
Barcelona return to La Liga after securing Copa del Rey quarterfinal qualification and winning the Spanish Super Cup. The team has 11 consecutive victories and aims to maintain its lead when facing Real Sociedad. The squad completed a final training session before travelling Sunday, with Gavi and Andreas Christensen confirmed absent. Raphinha missed on-pitch training after feeling discomfort, trained individually in the gym, and remains a travel possibility though starting status is uncertain. Dro also did not train and will trigger his €6 million release clause to leave Barcelona for PSG. Marc-Andre ter Stegen trained despite a near-finalised loan to Girona. Flick called up youth prospects Lorenzo Oertli and Pol Bernabeu.
