Overview
- Raphinha, Marc Bernal and Andreas Christensen rejoined first‑team work on Wednesday, giving Hansi Flick added options before Saturday’s trip to Osasuna.
- Raphinha has missed about five weeks with a right hamstring strain suffered with Brazil against France, and staff are targeting a careful return with a possible El Clásico cameo on May 10.
- Multiple reports say at least three Saudi Pro League clubs plan summer bids for Raphinha, and Barcelona would consider a sale only if the winger chooses to go.
- Christensen is back in the group after a partial ACL tear, with his deal up on June 30 and talks ongoing over a shorter contract on reduced wages.
- Club finances remain tight, and local outlets warn a high‑profile departure could fund signings, which would test Barcelona’s resolve to keep core contributors.
