„Barcelona“ coach Quique Setien has no doubts that Lionel Messi will be able to play from the first minutes in the resuming „La Liga“ championship matches. L. Messi suffered a minor muscle injury last week. There were talks in the media that the Argentine might have to miss the match against „Mallorca“ this Saturday due to it, but Q. Setien reassured the fans of the Catalan club. „We didn't even have doubts whether Leo could play“, - said the coach. - Other players also had similar problems. Leo didn't train for a while just for safety reasons.“ Q. Setien also revealed that Luis Suarez, who suffered a knee injury in January, could already play in the first matches. He was supposed to miss the rest of the season, but the extended break due to the coronavirus gave him a chance to return to the field. „I believe he can play from the first minutes, but to think that he is already capable of playing the full 90 minutes would be a mistake“, - said the Spaniard. „Lately, he has had no problems, but we certainly do not want to risk his health.“, - added Q. Setien.
