The club's security guard Xavi is unlikely to play in the upcoming weekend's Spanish championship VI round match against "Mallorca" footballers. The Catalonian team's attack dispatcher injures his Achilles tendon after the match with Kazan's "Rubin" team. For this reason, the head coach of the Spanish national team, Vicente Del Bosque, did not include the guard in the national team's application for the European Championship qualifying matches against Lithuania and Scotland. On Friday, Xavi did not participate in the morning training session of the "Barcelona" club. It is reported that "Barca" coach Josep Guardiola has not yet decided whether to register the Catalan for the Spanish championship match against the "Mallorca" team. This match will be played at the "Camp Nou" stadium on Sunday. If Xavi is still registered for the match, it is almost certain that he will remain on the substitutes' bench. Today, the "Barcelona" club defender Adriano already participated in training, who injured a leg muscle in the match against Bilbao's "Athletic" footballers. Brazil needed just a few days to recover, but today Adriano was still doing separate exercises from his teammates. He was given lighter physical activity. Three young academy footballers from the Catalonia club - Nolito, Marti Rivelora, and Thiago Alcantara - also participated in training with the main "Barcelona" team. There is a possibility that one of them will be included in the official "Barca" application for the match against "Mallorca".
