After the difficult victory against Getafe, Quique Setién had programmed the usual recovery session during the morning of this Sunday. However, advised by his coaching staff and doctors, the Barcelona coach has decided to suspend the session.
As 'AS' explains, the last blood tests together with the data collected from the devices the players wear during the training sessions have shown that there are several members of the team with important muscular fatigue.
That's why Setién has decided to give the squad a rest until Tuesday afternoon, in order to free up a short and already injury-ridden squad from further work.
In total and counting the match of Getafe finished around 18:00, the team will have three days off. After all, the team had only stopped two days since Setién arrived and the legs begin to weigh.
This way the team takes air for the match against Eibar and what comes later, the round of Champions against Napoli and the 'Clásico' at Bernabéu against Real Madrid. Dates where the injuries would be even more painful.
