Xavi wants to be fully ready for El Clasico

El Clasico in general

The list of summons for the Clasico has not offered any surprise: all the available players of the staff travel. Only injured players remain in Barcelona: Sergiño Dest, Samuel Umtiti, Ansu Fati and Sergi Roberto . The rest, including Gerard Piqué, who has had some discomfort in the adductor from several weeks ago, will travel first thing in the morning to the Spanish capital. Two players in particular will have to watch in the section of cards, since they are one to complete the cycle: Ronald Araújo and Eric Garcia. The Uruguayan center-back is the one who is in the most danger, since not only does he aim to start, but he will also have to stop a motivated Vinicius, who will fall down his band, while the former City player has all the numbers to start on the bench after three consecutive games in eleven.

Xavi wants to show true performance

Only two players travel from the subsidiary, goalkeeper Arnau Tenas and Gavi, although the latter can be considered a first-team player for all purposes since the start of the season. The rest of the call repeat the same ones that traveled to Istanbul, with the exception of Dani Alves, who is the great novelty on the list, since he is not registered in the Europa League. The Blaugrana expedition will leave Barcelona tomorrow at 11 am to land an hour and twenty minutes later in Madrid. The team will stay at the Intercontinental Hotel in Madrid and later travel by coach to the Santiago Bernabéu.
