Flick hoping Barca’s Yamal can face Valencia after knock
Hansi Flick is hoping Lamine Yamal is fit to face Valencia in La Liga on Sunday after taking a knock.
Barcelona coach Hansi Flick remains optimistic that young player Lamine Yamal could be fit to face Valencia in the upcoming La Liga match on Sunday, following the teenager's minor injury. Yamal, who scored both goals in Barcelona's recent 5-2 victory over Rayo Vallecano, did not participate in Friday's training session due to a knock.
Flick stated that he is currently evaluating whether it's best for Yamal to rest or start from the beginning. The 19-year-old is expected to travel with the team to Mestalla stadium, where Barcelona aims to maintain their perfect start to the season. He trained separately and reported feeling better during the session. Flick emphasized that Yamal, who has impressed with his recent performances, is enthusiastic about playing.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid suffered a 1-0 loss to Real Betis, providing Barcelona with an opportunity to solidify their position at the top of the league.
