Madrid: Striker Ousmane Dembele took part in Barcelona’s training session for the first time since suffering a tendon injury while playing away to Getafe on September 16.
After suffering the injury, club doctors estimated Dembele would be out of action for around four months, although his recovery appears to be ahead of schedule.
Barca coach Ernesto Valverde only organised a gentle session following the 2-0 win away to Villarreal on Sunday night which keeps Barca five points clear at the top of the La Liga, but everything now points to Dembele being available for the coach following the Christmas break.
