OFFICIAL: Malcom receives the high and can play the Leganés-Barça

The most expensive signing of the FC Barcelona this past summer, Malcom Filipe, has received already the high doctor when having recovered to 100% of the sprain of ankle that suffered three weeks ago, and for which initially had stirred a week of recovery, subtracting a gravity that has gone of less to more with the step of the days.

Malcom already carried training during the last days beside the rest of his mates, but the medical services had him in observation and, by caution, had not wanted to give him still the high medical, that finally has arrived this Monday in the morning.

This means that Malcom has all the ballots to go in in the list of summoned of Ernesto Valverde for the Leganés-Barcelona of this Wednesday, corresponding to the sixth day of LaLiga Santander 2018-19. The Brazilian so only had of some minutes of game in the field of the Valladolid, and wishes to participate in his second split suspender belt this Wednesday.

In spite of that the most likely is that it go in in the announcement, does not foresee that it play of start against the Leganés, but Dembélé, Leo Messi and Luis Suárez will go back to have all the ballots to be headlines. In the case that Luis Suárez receive rest, Coutinho or Munir could occupy positions of attack to the detriment of the Uruguayan.

As with any new signing, and more if it arrives after an injury, Ernesto Valverde will take it to him calmly to the hour to give opportunities of progressive form to Malcom Filipe. The paramount is to keep the good series of results of the Barça -in spite of the tie against the Girona- to follow leading the table of classification of LaLiga.

Changes in the alignment of the Barça against the Leganés

And, although the Leganés is the current colista of the classification, the FC Barcelona no fía neither a peel in Butarque. Malcom will begin in the bench -if it is summoned-, and the rotations of Ernesto Valverde could arrive in defence, in front of the recent expulsions of Umtiti in Champions League and of Lenglet in LaLiga. Vermaelen Could have an opportunity beside Gerard Hammered, whereas Sergi Roberto will return to the eleven.
