Fati’s injury issues have started to clear after the Spanish international missed the majority of preseason due to a fresh setback.

Despite offers to leave Catalonia ahead of the 2024/25 campaign, Fati remained determined to stay in Barcelona, and that persistence is slowly being rewarded.

Hansi Flick has preached caution over recovery as he looks to avoid overloading Fati at a critical time in his career.

He came off the bench in 2-1 UEFA Champions League defeat at AS Monaco earlier this month, to end his long wait for another Barcelona game, and now it is time for a La Liga re-introduction.

Flick has included him in the squad to face Osasuna today, and due to a packed schedule, the 21-year-old should get some minutes on the road in Pamplona.

If he does, it will be a return to the scene of his first senior goal for Barcelona, as he set a record as the club’s youngest scorer in a 2-2 draw, which has since been overhauled by Lamine Yamal.
