The big star of the FC Barcelona, Leo Messi, trained this Wednesday without the vendaje that lució in the last days, after the hard entrance suffered by Koulibaly in the party of the Saturday in front of the Naples. The Argentinian star is fully recovered of his annoyances, and very motivated to offer his best level of performance in front of the Bayern Munich this next Friday.

This Wednesday could him see train with some small elastic bandages in the zone of the hit, already without samples of apparent pain. After having been 48 hours in rest and with antinflamatorios to recess the hematoma that suffered in the left ankle, already feels smart to go back to marvel on the lawn and be headline in the eleven that will present Setién in front of the Bavarians.

The protection that used Messi this Wednesday, as they ensure from 'ACE', will employ more like mental reinforcement that physical, so that the player make all the exercises and movements with plenary convencimiento of this and without dosificarse. A species of placebo that do not know if Messi also will carry during the duel of the Friday, although it does not have importance.

With the rosarino to 100%, the only doubt of Quique Setién right now is to know if it will be able to explain or no with Ousmane Dembélé. In principle, the French could receive the high this Thursday before travelling to Lisbon, although it is not foreseen that it play in front of the Bayern unless it was by an extreme need.

Dembélé, still without the high medical

The technicians consider that seven complete trainings with the group still are insufficient to avoid a relapse, taking into account that the party against the Bayern Munich will be the most demanding to physical and mental level of all the season. The situation of the French extreme will go valuing day in day out, and no descarta that yes it can have minutes in front of Manchester City or Olympique of Lyon if the Barça happens the eliminatory of quarter-finals.

The FC Barcelona, in any case, will have Leo Messi, Luis Suárez, Griezmann and Ansu Fati like resources for the forward, with Dembélé in the bench and Braithwaite like joker if it gave an extreme situation of contagions by coronavirus, something that does not expect that suceda. Quique Setién will have spare resources for all the positions of the field, although the staff keep on being short.
