Xavi and his team, with barely time to take in the 1-0 defeat against Cadiz, are already preparing for the next game.This Thursday, Real Sociedad await them at Anoeta.
For the next league game, Xavi has already chosen his squad. The main change in the list is the presence of Gerard Pique.
The club announced that Pique has been released from the infirmary. "The player has been medically cleared," the club wrote on social media. The defender missed the games against Levante, Eintracht and Cadiz due to left thigh adductor tendinopathy, but that is now in the past. He is fully recovered. He reappears just after the controversy over the commission he took from the Spanish Super Cup.
Araujo, who was unable to play against Cádiz after accumulating five yellow cards, is also back in the squad. With his suspension served, he can help the team in this final stretch.
The injured Ansu Fati, who is making progress in his recovery, Samuel Umtiti, Sergi Roberto and Pedri are not on the list.
This is the squadlist to visit Real Sociedad: Ter Stegen, Dest, Pique, Araujo, Sergio Busquets, Riqui Puig, Dembele, Dani Alves, Memphis Depay, Adama Traoré, Braithwaite, Neto, Nico, Lenglet, Luuk de Jong, Jordi Alba, Ferran, Frenkie de Jong, Mingueza, Eric Garcia, Aubameyang, Carevic and Gavi.
