For the 29th round match of the Spanish championship against Vigo team "Celta", the head coach of "Barcelona" Luis Enrique invited 18 of his players to prepare.
In the list of championship leaders is Lionel Messi, who did not play in any national team match during the so-called international break due to a swollen leg. However, on Saturday, the Argentine trained with his team as usual, so there is no doubt that the forward will enter the field and compete in Vigo.
Javier Mascherano, who was disqualified in the "El Clasico" match against Real Madrid, will not be in the ranks of "Barcelona". The player received his fifth yellow card in the match and according to the competition regulations must miss one game.
The third team goalkeeper Jordi Masip and defender Douglas Pereira did not make it to the list at the decision of the head coach.
Due to an injury suffered in the match with Ukraine in the Spanish national team game, defender Jordi Alba will not be able to help "Barcelona" in the match against "Celta". It is still not in the list of Thomas Vermaelen, who is training individually.
