The Reason for Gerard Martin's Absence from Barcelona Training
The Spanish newspaper 'Sport' reported that Barcelona defender Gerard Martin missed the team's training at the sports city due to feeling slightly unwell.
The newspaper clarified that the player is in good condition and the club preferred not to take any risks with him today given his importance in the upcoming Saturday match against Osasuna, with the expectation that he will return to train with the group normally tomorrow.
The newspaper confirmed that the rest of the team players participated in the training without any issues, including the young duo Drew and Tomi Márquez, who took part in the entire training session with the first team.
The training focused on the final preparations for the upcoming match, as the team aims to continue its positive results following the big victory over Real Betis and the Champions League win against Eintracht Frankfurt, in a week that also saw Real Madrid stumble under the leadership of Xabi Alonso.
The newspaper added that Martin will return to training normally tomorrow and will be ready for Saturday’s match, noting that coach Hans Flick highly values the player's commitment and his multiple roles on the pitch, especially as he has become one of the most versatile members of the team alongside Eric Garcia, who today signed a contract renewal with the club until 2031.
