Barcelona and Brazil winger Raphinha is reportedly ready for the major El Clásico clash against Real Madrid after returning from an injury that had sidelined him for a period of time.
According to recent reports, Raphinha has shown strong signs of recovery and is included in Barcelona’s plans ahead of the important La Liga match scheduled for Sunday, May 6.
Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is reportedly considering a specific plan for the player, either using him for a few minutes at the end of the match or including him in the squad depending on his match fitness, while carefully shaping the attacking line due to strong competition within the team.
Raphinha has been one of Barcelona’s key players this season, contributing both goals and assists in important matches, including victories against Real Madrid in previous encounters where he displayed high levels of finishing and creativity.
However, the player has also been dealing with hamstring muscle injuries that caused him to miss several important matches for both club and country.
Despite these challenges, his return is seen as a major boost for Barcelona in this historic fixture, which could potentially secure them the La Liga title for the second consecutive season.
