Jules Kound\u00e9, who was substituted as a precaution in the previous match, completed the session without problems and will be available.\n\nThe main doubt is Dani Olmo, who suffered a dislocation in his left shoulder and his participation remains in doubt.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Festive Atmosphere in Training<\/h2>\n\n\nThe training included various exercises and featured the participation of players from the subsidiary team. Lamine Yamal, Pedri, and Raphinha were the most applauded.\n\nThe only absences were Gavi and Andreas Christensen.\n\nCoach Hansi Flick led the session after the Christmas break, with the aim of maintaining the lead in the standings.\n\nUpon finishing, the players interacted with the fans, and all proceeds will go to the &#8216;Azulgrana Bracelets&#8217; project of the FC Barcelona Foundation.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Araujo Returns to FC Barcelona Training Uruguayan defender Ronald Araujo was the main novelty in FC Barcelona&#8217;s open-door training session at the Johan Cruyff Stadium.
