"FC Barcelona continued to step up their preparations ahead of the team's return to the Spotify Camp Nou later this weekend when they take on Athletic Club. The big news from the session today was the return of Raphinha, who was involved in part of the group training. Fellow injured star Pedri was also expected to take part in group training. But, in the end, he did not participate, with Barcelona not wanting to take any risks with him. More to Pedri's absence"
"However, according to Javi Miguel of AS, Pedri's absence was because he was dealing with a bout of gastroenteritis. Indeed, as per the journalist, the plan was for the midfield superstar to step onto the pitch with the rest of the group and test himself in parts of the training session. However, a sudden bout of gastroenteritis meant that the Spanish international was unable to do so."
FC Barcelona stepped up preparations for the home match against Athletic Club at the Spotify Camp Nou. Raphinha returned to part of the group training. Pedri was expected to test himself in training but did not participate because of a bout of gastroenteritis. The club chose not to take risks with the midfielder, who is also recovering from a hamstring injury sustained in the El Clasico. Medical clearance for Pedri could arrive next week, potentially allowing him to return for the Champions League trip to Stamford Bridge against Chelsea. Recovery is progressing better than earlier projections.
