Ferran López, the 22-year-old Barcelona midfielder, is undergoing a medical examination today at the Joan Gamper Sports City to determine his readiness to return to matches, according to the Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo.

The player hopes to receive the green light to participate on Saturday against Real Betis, before fully regaining his fitness for the visit to Eintracht Frankfurt next Tuesday in the Champions League.

Ferran suffered muscular problems in his calf muscle since the league match against Athletic Bilbao, which forced the technical staff to stop him as a precautionary measure after he was unable to complete training on Thursday, November 27. As a result, he missed the league matches against Alavés and Atlético Madrid.

The newspaper explained that Ferran's injury file gained greater importance after the serious injury to Dani Olmo, who will be absent until 2026 due to a shoulder dislocation. Ferran's return is seen as a crucial step to strengthen the attacking midfield position and provide additional solutions for coach Hans Flick in upcoming matches.
