Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has probably already drawn up a plan to play Atletico Madrid on Saturday evening. But if Hector Fort were also included, he would have to reconsider.
The 18-year-old defender missed Barcelona's final training before the big match on Friday due to muscle problems. Sport say it is unlikely he will be in their squad for the match as a result.
Ansu Fati and Andreas Christensen trained without any problems; the former came back from a hamstring problem and the latter recovered from an Achilles tendon problem. Fati will be in the squad tomorrow, but Christensen will likely be sidelined for longer to allow for a full recovery.
Barcelona are now on their way to a fully fit squad for the first time under Hansi Flick, but the other two absences are costly. Captain Marc-Andre ter Stegen will be out for much of the season and Lamine Yamal will not return for the next few weeks.
