This summer, Belgian Thomas Vermaelen, who joined the team "Barcelona", fully recovered from an injury and can play at full strength.
This was stated on Thursday by the medical staff of the Catalan club after performing a player's health check.
Th. Vermaelen received an Achilles tendon injury in a World Cup match with Russia in Brazil, which the Belgian national team won 1-0.
Despite these health problems, the player did not prevent him from moving from London's "Arsenal" to "Barcelona" in August. The Catalan club paid 10 million euros for the defender.
After successfully completing rehabilitation, the Belgian played in a friendly match against the Indonesian U19 team as part of the "Barcelona B" team on Wednesday. Spending more than an hour on the field, Th. Vermaelen scored the first goal of the match with a header, and the Catalans defeated the opponent by 6-0.
It is believed that the new player of "Barcelona" will most likely be registered for the Spanish league match against "Granada" taking place on Saturday. The Catalan club will play this match at their home stadium, Camp Nou.
