Lamine Yamal chasing early Barcelona return at Celta Vigo

Lamine Yamal could return earlier than planned when Barcelona play Celta Vigo on November 23.

La Blaugrana restart their league campaign in Galicia with the majority of their squad still away on international duty.

Spain's run to a double header in the UEFA Nations League was disrupted last week when Lamine Yamal was ruled out with an ankle injury.

Club and country opted for caution with the 17-year-old and he returned to Catalonia for treatment.

The initial prognosis for his recovery indicated an absence of two to three weeks, which would take him until the first week of December.

Robert Lewandowski missed Poland's camp with a problem and will face Celta, while Lamine Yamal races to meet the same deadline.

According to reports from Diario AS, Lamine Yamal is making positive progress in his recovery, with no pain in the affected area.

A decision on his availability and potential to play off the bench will be made in the coming days.
