Spanish media reports have revealed Barcelona's preparations for the highly anticipated derby against Espanyol in the Spanish La Liga, following the Christmas break.

The young star Lamin Yamal has returned to regular group training after recovering from an illness he experienced on New Year's Day. He had left the training facility yesterday just minutes after arriving without participating in the first session. Reports confirmed that his absence was not due to a serious issue, but rather because he was not feeling well.

According to the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo," all the team's players participated in training normally, except for those who have been injured for a long time, such as Andreas Christensen and Gavi. The players wore winter clothing in anticipation of the weather conditions.

Defender Ronald Araújo also participated in the training session, along with reserve team players Goffrey, Drew, and Tommy Márquez, while Eric Garcia continued training wearing a protective mask, and Dani Olmo carried out the exercises normally.

Barcelona is preparing to face Espanyol tomorrow, Saturday, as part of the Spanish La Liga competition, at 10:00 PM Cairo time, in a local derby expected to feature a fierce battle for points.
