Christensen already training with the group

Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez has received good news. After the recoveries of Sergio Busquets and Pedri against Atletico Madrid and waiting for Ousmane Dembélé, fellow defender Andreas Christensen is also close to making a return. In Monday's training session, the Dane participated in drills with the rest of the group and faces just a few days before he receives medical clearance.

Last week, Andreas Christensen was already doing field work with the recovery trainers, a step prior to his return to the group. And since Monday he has been working with his teammates, indicating that he will soon be available for selection by Xavi for the last matches of the league championship.

The Danish defender suffered a muscle injury in the soleus during the last national team break, as he was injured in the Denmark-Finland match. He was expected to be out for about 4 weeks and a month later he is starting to work with the group.

Youth players Lamine Yamal, Alarcon and Aleix Garrido continued training with the first team, while reserve players Juanda and Rosanas joined in on the session.
