Joao Cancel follows without recovering of the distention in the internal lateral ligament of the right knee that suffered on 4 January in The Palms. Although the side travelled to Riad (Saudi Arabia) with the team without the high doctor with the hope to recover for the hypothetical final of the Supercopa of Spain, follows without training with the group in the return of the team of his trip by the Asian country.

Xavi Hernández prepared this Tuesday in the morning a training of recovery and of compensation, thinking in contesting two parties in four days, the two with trips far of Barcelona. The first of them will be in front of Unionistas the Thursday to the 19:30 hours in the eighth of final of the Glass of Rey, a duel for which the luso follows without preparing .

I cancel, with increasingly options to return to the lawn

With this present, seems that I Cancel will lose his fourth consecutive party and the Barça will have to travel to Salamanca with at least seven drops. If there is not twist of script with the Portuguese, Xavi will have to keep him in the infirmary beside Ter Stegen, Gavi, Marcos Alonso, Iñigo Martínez and Raphinha, in addition to Ronald Araújo that it will have to fulfil his sanction of a party in the Glass.

The drop of the Uruguayan, added to the one of Cancel, leaves some doubts on the composition of the defensive line. Koundé Will have to continue like head office beside Christensen, accompanied of Balde in the left side and remaining the right-handed lane for the canterano Héctor Fort or the captain Sergi Roberto. It is worthwhile to remember also that the culés will play in front of the Real Betis the Sunday to the 18:30 hours by LaLiga, by what the rotations seem necessary in front of a team of First RFEF.

Options for Xavi of face to the Glass

Further of the bad current feelings, the staff culé could bet for giving minutes to some canterano more and allow that players like Koundé, Gündogan or Of Jong go to the bench in front of Unionistas. This Tuesday Xavi had to his orders to the six youngsters that travelled to Saudi Arabia. The goalkeepers Ander Astralaga and Diego Kochen, Fort, the central Pau Cubarsí, the mediocentro Marc Casadó and the leading centre Marc Guiu. At least the half of them seem to have serious options to have minutes in Salamanca this Thursday.
