Barcelona’s 21-year-old forward Ansu Fati has successfully recovered from a foot injury and is set to make his return to the team for their upcoming Champions League match against Monaco on Thursday. Fati, who got injured in training after his loan spell to Brighton last season, could make his debut appearance for Barcelona this season. Despite not having played for the club since 2023, his return is highly anticipated by fans.

Barcelona’s head coach Hansi Flick, currently in his first season with the club, will still be missing several key players due to injuries. The unavailable players for the Monaco match include Dani Olmo, Gavi, Ronald Araujo, and Frenkie de Jong.
