21-year-old Barcelona player set for comeback as medical clearance looms | OneFootball

Competing for all the possible titles, FC Barcelona have faced a very hectic schedule in the last few months. The exertion the Catalan team has faced in this stretch has made itself apparent in the injuries the Blaugrana players have suffered recently.

Two key players for Hansi Flick are currently facing physical problems, and their participation in the upcoming crucial match against Inter Milan is already ruled out, i.e., Alejandro Balde and Jules Kounde.

Marc Casado nearing his return

Meanwhile, another player who suffered an injury before these three players was the midfielder Marc Casado, who was injured in the game against Atletico Madrid and has been unable to play since then.

However, the Spaniard was able to return to train with his teammates a couple of days ago, and SPORT reports that the midfielder already has a match in mind when he would get back on the pitch.

The final decision regarding his return to action will ultimately depend on the medical services and Hansi Flick. However, Casado is keen to get back into action and help Barcelona in this crucial stretch of the season.

The midfielder looking to return against Real Madrid

He could have made it to the squad for the upcoming game against Inter Milan, but Hansi Flick has decided not to call him up.

In such a context, the Spaniard is looking to make his return to the pitch for the league El Clasico to be played at Montjuic, as he would be in a better position to play in this game if Flick needs him.

Thus, although he will still need some time to get back to full fitness, he will still be one more weapon in Hansi Flick’s arsenal in this final stretch of the season, where every game can prove to be decisive. Hopefully, Marc Casado will be able to help his team before the end of the season.
