Marcus Rashford is a doubt for Barcelona's return to Spotify Camp Nou this weekend after missing training with flu on Thursday and Friday. Barça coach Hansi Flick says he will make a late call on the availability of Rashford, who has started the last 10 matches in all competitions for his club, ahead of Saturday's visit from Athletic Club. "Marcus has fever, so he was out [of training] yesterday and today," Flick confirmed in a news conference on Friday.
After the match, Bernal shared the advice Flick had given him before stepping onto the pitch. He offered context by explaining that Flick had been keeping an eye on his rhythm over the past week. "Yes, he told me to make the most of today's match. "We also played a match on Thursday, mainly so that I could feel better, get into rhythm, and that's what I did, making the most of it," Bernal explained.
