Lionel Messi appears to be set for a return to the field in the biggest game of the early part of the season, El Clásico against Real Madrid in two weeks.

According to a report from Mundo Deportivo, the Blaugrana superstar has made his return to the training field for a very light work, like running and specific exercises with the ball, which is already good news.
