Rafinha in Barca's list to play with Betis/ The best news for Barcelona: the return of the big star

The inclusion of the injured Rafinha's name in Barcelona's list for the match against Real Betis was the best news that the Barca fans could hear.

According to Sport Se, Barcelona is preparing for the battle with a double spirit on the eve of this week's crucial meeting with Real Betis at the La Cartuja Stadium. The reason for this double spirit is that Hansi Flick has named Rafinha and Frankie De Jong in the list of travelers to Sevilla, and Barça are very happy to have the injured Rafinha back in the list.

The presence of these two stars in the last two training sessions of Barcelona had raised hopes for their return, and the German coach had announced their availability subject to the progress of the last training session on Friday evening before announcing the final list.

De Jong, who was injured during the World Cup, along with Rafinha, who missed the Blaugrana's last two games against Getafe and Galatasaray due to muscle soreness from being in Brazil's national team camp, were added to the team list without any problems after the final approval of the medical staff.

With the return of these two valuable pieces, Barcelona's injury list has been reduced to a minimum, and currently only Andreas Christensen and Ronny Bardaghji remain in the club's clinic.

Considering that Hansi Flick has 24 ready players and the legal requirement that 23 players be present in the match sheet, Hamzeh Abdel Karim, the young Egyptian striker, was given to Barca Athletic so that he could play in the second team's match against Otbo. Interestingly, Brian Farinas managed to keep his place in the first team's passenger list and go to Sevilla.

The Barcelona convoy left Catalonia for Andalucía on Friday evening and settled in its hotel in La Cartuja.
