Ansu Fati, Ousmane Dembele, Ronald Araujo, Frenkie de Jong are all part of Barcelona’s Champions League squad for Tuesday’s match. In other words, Barcelona have finalized their roster for facing Dynamo Kiev in Group E, the club confirmed.
All the four players we mentioned above – Fati, Dembele, Araujo, and de Jong – have suffered injury lately.
Indeed, Dembele has yet to play a single minute for the first team of Barcelona this season. And that is owing to a long-standing knee condition.
Barcelona Have Finalized Their Roster for Facing Dynamo Kiev
But now, Barcelona are relieved by the return of these four players for the crucial European fixture.
Fati is also returning after missing his side’s last two matches due to a minor knee injury (football news). But at least it’s his right knee that needs medical attention now, and not his long-ailing left one.
Barcelona, whom Sergi Barjuan manages now on an interim basis, are currently third in Group E. After securing just three points from three games, though, they have now named their squad for the next European match.
According to this list, Sergio Aguero is out of the squad. The Argentina international is about to undergo a comprehensive medical examination after suffering from breathing problems and chest pain recently. He showed symptoms of these while playing against Alaves on Saturday.
Also, finally, the Catalan giants are still without Sergi Roberto, Pedri, Martin Braithwaite and Gerard Pique. The latter, Pique, scored a 1-0 victory over Dynamo in the reverse encounter on October 20.
Barcelona full squad: Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Neto, Inaki Pena, Sergino Dest, Ronald Araujo, Clement Lenglet, Jordi Alba, Oscar Mingueza, Samuel Umtiti, Eric Garcia, Alejandro Balde; Sergio Busquets, Riqui Puig, Yusuf Demir, Philippe Coutinho, Frenkie de Jong, Nico, Gavi, Alvaro Sanz; Ousmane Dembele, Memphis Depay, Ansu Fati, Luuk de Jong
