Barcelona boss Hansi Flick has announced that Raphinha is fully fit and set to join the squad for this weekend’s La Liga tie against Osasuna. His return also boosts hopes for the upcoming El Clásico clash with Real Madrid. Speaking at his pre-match press conference, Flick highlighted Raphinha’s work ethic and praised his mentality during recovery. The coach added that teenage midfielder Marc Bernal is also back in contention after a long layoff. This news comes as a major lift for Barça’s attack, which missed the Brazilian’s pace and creativity during a crucial hamstring injury earlier in the season. Fans will watch closely to see if Raphinha can help seal a second straight league title.
