Ousmane Dembele is finally closing in on a return to first-team action for Barcelona and could be passed fit in time for next week’s trip to Rayo Vallecano in La Liga.
The French forward has been back in training for a little while and went for a check-up this week back in Finland with the surgeon who operated on his knee in June.
According to Catalunya Radio, if Dembele is given the all-clear from Dr Lasse Lempainen then he will be available to be included in the squad to face Rayo on Wednesday.
Interestingly, the report also reckons there’s also a chance Barca could also decide to put Dembele in the stands if he doesn’t renew his contract at the club.
