Barcelona get fitness boost as Inigo Martinez returns to training after injury
Barcelona were handed a fitness boost on Thursday as center-back Inigo Martinez returned to full training with the team.
Martinez has been out with a hamstring injury and has not featured since being forced off in the Super Cup final win over Real Madrid.
Barcelona ruled out the defender for a month at the time but he’s now closing in on a comeback by joining his team-mates back in training.
Inigo won’t be available to play at the weekend against Alaves in La Liga but it’s hoped he could be ready for the Copa del Rey quarter-final tie with Valencia.
The return of Martinez is a boost as he’s been a regular this season in the backline alongside young Pau Cubarsi.
His return to fitness will give Hansi Flick a selection headache as Ronald Araujo is also fit again now and has taken over from Martinez in recent weeks.
