"Barcelona" team may be forced to play with a not the strongest lineup in the first Champions League season match in Germany. According to the team's head coach Ernesto Valverde, the Catalan club still cannot count on the striker Lionel Messi. The veteran, who is recovering from a leg injury, will definitely not play in the "La Liga" game against "Valencia" and it is questionable whether he will be able to prepare for the match against Dortmund's "Borussia".
"I am not a doctor, but it seems that the wound was slightly reopened and this forced us to become even more cautious. I don't know if he will be ready to play on Tuesday. I don't want to say anything to give false hopes," - E. Valverde said.
