Barcelona have struggled with injury problems this season, although things have gradually started to improve in recent weeks. In October, Frenkie de Jong, Dani Olmo and Gavi, among others, made their return, and Eric Garcia should also make his comeback in the next seven days.
Garcia was injured during the warm-up before Barcelona's 5-1 win over Sevilla last month. He was initially expected to be out for only about a week, but that has now turned into a month.
However, there is light at the end of the tunnel for the 24-year-old, who was photographed training on Saturday morning. According to MD, Barcelona expects him to be given the medical green light ahead of next Saturday's trip to Celta Vigo.
It was recently reported that Garcia will once again become a defensive option for Hansi Flick, who had previously used the Barcelona star as a makeshift midfielder due to the club's injury crisis. His return comes at a good time in terms of adding depth, although with Ronald Araujo set to return soon, he may struggle to get minutes in the coming weeks.
