Marcus Rashford headlines the Barcelona squad for Tuesday’s Champions League match against Chelsea, having missed the Athletic Club game due to illness.
Barcelona announced the squad on Monday ahead of their crucial matchday five fixture. The standout news is the inclusion of the England international winger, who has fully recovered and received the medical all-clear to be available for selection by coach Hansi Flick.
Rashford had been sidelined last weekend due to illness, but his recovery allows the German coach to consider him for one of the most important matches of the group stage.
The Barcelona squad for the Chelsea clash is as follows:
Goalkeepers: Joan Garcia, Wojciech Szczesny and Kochen
Defenders: Alejandro Balde, Ronald Araujo, Christensen, Gerard Martin, Jules Kounde, Eric Garcia and Cubarsi
Midfielders: Fermin, Marc Casado, Frenkie de Jong, Bernal, Olmo and Dro Fernandez
Forwards: Ferran Torres, Robert Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, Marcus Rashford and Bardgh
This selection provides Flick with a balanced mix of experience and youth across all positions, while Rashford’s return adds additional attacking options to the squad.
