Barcelona training confirms double boost

La Liga heavyweights Barcelona have on Monday been afforded a pair of boosts on the personnel front. This comes amid confirmation of two leading members of Hansi Flick's squad returning to group training.

First up comes Fermín López. Midfielder Fermín has of course been sidelined since late season. After being forced under the knife to repair a broken bone in his foot, the 23-year-old was forced to pull out of Spain's ultimately triumphant World Cup squad.
