Barcelona fans can breathe a sigh of relief as star striker Lamine Yamal is expected to be ready for the Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Athletic Club on January 8.
According to AS, the young talent has shown important progress in his recovery from the ankle injury he suffered during the match against Leganés on December 15.
The Barcelona squad resumed training after the Christmas break, and Yamal underwent a thorough evaluation on Sunday to assess the stability of his right ankle. The results have been extremely positive, indicating that the injury has healed well.
Medical staff are optimistic about the recovery timeline and Yamal will soon begin training on the field. The top priority remains ensuring he is fully prepared to contribute in the Spanish Super Cup.
Everything is on the right track
Both the medical team and Yamal himself are reportedly confident of his quick return. This was communicated to coach Hansi Flick, who hopes to have the forward available for the crucial match in January.
Initially, the club estimated that his recovery would take between three and four weeks, according to the official medical report.
However, sources suggest that Yamal is on track to return within three weeks, meaning he will almost certainly be part of the team that travels to Saudi Arabia on January 6.
Early recovery
Yamal’s determination to return to action has been evident throughout his rehabilitation process. Despite his injury, he recently traveled to Dubai to receive the Best Emerging Player award.
During his trip he was accompanied by a club trainer to ensure his recovery remained on track. This level of commitment underscores the player’s hunger to quickly return and contribute to the team’s success.
With his recovery progressing as planned, both Barcelona fans and staff can look forward to seeing Yamal back in action, adding his spark and energy to the team’s attack in the semi-final clash.
