Earlier this week it was confirmed that Barcelona would be confronted with Osasuna next Thursday in their Herstaken La Liga nature – this was despite the fact that both clubs are the decision to play the game on that date, with the Spanish football federation that stood about this.
It means that the Osasuna match against Athletic Club, which would take place on Friday, has been pushed back to Sunday, while Barcelona will now be without the services of Ronald Arajo and Raphinha because both are unable to return from international service on time – or so they are.
In the early hours of Wednesday morning, Arajo could be equipped for Uruguay's world cup qualification in 2026 against Bolivia, but even if he were to play, there is a chance for him to be back in the Estadi Olimpic Lluis company for the competition, which was postponed earlier this month because of the sudden and tragic slip doctor Minarria.
As reported by Sport, Raphinha and Araujo are both planning to sit on a private jet who will leave Buenos Aires immediately after the full-time whistle of Argentina-Brazil, with a number of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid players who would also be on board, as Vinicius Junior,.
The two would arrive in Barcelona between Wednesday morning and afternoon, which means that they would have a considerable amount of time for the kick -off on Thursday. In retrospect, this should be possible to have Hansi film.
However, it would be a big risk if they were playing against Osasuna, given that they could have played halfway the world for less than 48 hours earlier. Flick will be aware of the risks, and it would be no surprise if they did not start, even if they were available.
