Xavi will have some players back for El Clasico

Five of the Catalans’ players will be with them in their Super Cup clash.

Barcelona

has confirmed that some of their players who have been away from action have traveled with them to face

Real Madrid

in their Super Cup semi-final clash on Wednesday, and these players include

Ronald Araujo

,

Ansu Fati,

Pedri

,

Frenkie de Jong

, and

Ferran Torres

.

Ansu Fati’s

presence could be the best news for the Catalans as they know the importance of the young striker and have been struggling in his absence, and they were worried that his return, maybe after their Real Madrid clash.

They have also mentioned

Ferran Torres

among the players traveling with them, and he could be facing a tough debut in Spain’s most important clash in a situation that there are so many expectations from him following his £55m move from Manchester City.

Despite having these players in his squad,

Xavi

is dealing with so many injuries he will be without players like Eric Garcia, whose absence makes their defense weaker. Garcia will be sidelined for five weeks suffering from a hamstring injury, and Araujo will have a big role in his first match after his return.

Sergio Roberto and Martin Braithwaite are the Catalans’ other injured players as Roberto is still recovering from a hamstring injury, and Braithwaite is troubled with a knee injury.
