"Barcelona has received encouraging news regarding Raphinha Dias as the team prepares for the upcoming El Clásico against Real Madrid on October 26th. The Brazilian, sidelined with a right hamstring injury sustained against Real Oviedo, underwent a control MRI on Thursday. Reports indicate that his recovery is progressing well, making him a possible option for the matchday squad. Despite the positive signs, Raphinha will not be available for this weekend's La Liga clash with Girona."
"Barcelona's medical team plans to carefully manage his return, potentially reserving him for a substitute role at the Santiago Bernabéu to avoid aggravating the injury. The Brazilian could also be considered for the UEFA Champions League fixture against Olympiakos next Tuesday if his recovery continues smoothly. Other forwards are facing uncertainty. Robert Lewandowski remains out with a hamstring tear and will not return until after the next international break."
Raphinha underwent a control MRI and is progressing well from a right hamstring injury, making him a possible matchday option for the El Clásico on October 26. He will not be available for the upcoming La Liga match against Girona as the medical staff plans a cautious return, potentially using him as a substitute at the Santiago Bernabéu to avoid re-injury. He could also be considered for the Champions League fixture against Olympiakos if recovery continues. Robert Lewandowski remains sidelined with a hamstring tear until after the next international break. Ferran Torres trained individually and will be assessed on Friday. Lamine Yamal and Fermín López are expected to provide attacking options, likely from the bench, supporting Marcus Rashford and Roony Bardghji.
