Barça's midfield is decimated by injuries. Gavi, Pedri, Frenkie de Jong and Andreas Christensen, the new number 6, have been injured for a few weeks. Gavi will not play until the end of the season due to his cruciate ligament rupture. For the other three, their presence against FC Barcelona can be credible, even hoped for. Pedri continues his preparation alone, which risks doing just to be present in six days in Paris for the Champions League. The Dane Andreas Christensen will be there, recovered from pain in his Achilles tendon. The biggest uncertainty is for Frenkie de Jong, absent from the field with a sprained ankle.

Barça has not communicated on this, but the Dutchman is now training with the rest of the group. The former Ajax player returned to collective training yesterday morning after Sport. A return that the Catalan club did not highlight on its social networks as it usually does. With six more days of preparation, he will logically be able to hold his place in the match against PSG next week. Xavi must now decide whether he will be able to start at the Parc des Princes.
