Barcelona returned to training after a short break, amid notable absences, most prominently Fermín López and Marc Bernal, ahead of the anticipated match against Celta Vigo in La Liga, according to the Spanish newspaper 'Mundo Deportivo'.

The training session held at the Joan Gamper sports city witnessed the absence of four players, as neither Fermín López nor Marc Bernal appeared, alongside long-term injured players Andreas Christensen and Raphinha, following a recovery day from the European exit against Atlético Madrid, and two rest days granted by coach Hans Flick to the team.

According to the report, Marc Bernal is still suffering from the effects of a left ankle sprain, as he has not fully recovered yet, prompting the technical staff to handle his condition cautiously, with expectations that he might join Wednesday's match against Celta Vigo at Spotify Camp Nou.

On the other hand, Fermín López underwent several stitches in the lip area after an injury sustained from an unintended intervention by Juan Musso during the last match, prompting the medical staff to exclude him from group training and suffice with gym exercises to avoid any contact or complications.

The Spanish newspaper indicated that the player continues to receive treatment in a sensitive area, with expectations of his return against Celta, but his participation will remain contingent on his full readiness.

In the same context, the team continues its preparations without interruption until the match date, as they will undergo continuous training in the coming days, striving for full readiness before facing Celta Vigo.

Meanwhile, Raphinha continues his rehabilitation program in preparation for returning to the field, aiming to participate in the El Clasico match against Real Madrid, scheduled for May 10, after suffering an injury to the back muscle during a friendly match with the Brazilian national team against France.
