Official: Barcelona squad list to face Atletico Madrid | La Liga GW18

As Barcelona get set to host Atletico Madrid in their final game of 2024 later tonight, manager Hansi Flick has announced the squad list of players who will be at his disposal.

In what is going to be a top-of-the-table encounter in La Liga, Barça go in without their most potent attacking weapon as Lamine Yamal has been ruled out through an ankle injury.

He joins Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Marc Bernal out on the sidelines while Andreas Christensen is also not ready to return even though he has resumed training with the group.

But, there is good news as Ansu Fati received his medical clearance on Friday and has been named in the squad list to face Atletico Madrid.

After a month out due to a thigh injury, the 22-year-old comes back and will be hoping to get some minutes on the field.

Meanwhile, young defender Hector Fort does not make the list after he missed training on Friday due to a muscle problem.
