Luis Suarez is one lucky player. Although the coronavirus a tragic time for everyone, the Uruguayan striker has been able to recover from his injury in this time. Also, according to the new LaLiga protocol, if everything continues as it is, he will join the group work when the team resumes training.

Luis Suarez had practically said goodbye to the season. He dreamed of playing a final match, possibly a Champions League clash. But the coronavirus pandemic has provided a second chance for the Uruguayan. 

The player has evolved well from his injury, and he could be back in training with the rest of the group by May. And since LaLiga's latest protocol says the season could restart in those dates, Setién could possibly count with the skilled number 9 again. 

Therefore, he could feature in the starting eleven for the matches that remain to be played, both in LaLiga and in the Champions League, where Barça must win at home if they intend on going through the next round.

With his injury, and later Dembélé's, Barcelona was forced to sign Braithwaite to make up for the losses. Now, Quique Setién can count on all his players for the final stretch of the season, with Messi, Griezmann, Braithwaite and Ansu Fati also available in attacking positions.
