Barca still without Raphinha, keep an eye on De Jong

The attacker Raphinha missed FC Barcelona's training session again on Tuesday, just two days before their Copa del Rey semi-final first leg against Atletico Madrid.

The Brazilian winger limped off at half-time during the league match against Elche and subsequently missed fixtures against Albacete and Mallorca.

Raphinha is suffering from an overload in his right adductor, with Barcelona coach Hansi Flick stressing the need for a conservative approach to his recovery.

Beyond Raphinha, the Blaugrana coach is also closely monitoring Frenkie De Jong, who lacks full match fitness. Nevertheless, the Dutchman did participate in Tuesday's training session.
