The return of Andreas Christensen is imminent. The player will not be included in the squad for the match against Betis, but he is expected to return against Getafe
The FC Barcelona can breathe a sigh of relief. After suffering a harsh blow with the rupture of the biceps femoris in Iñigo Martínez, an injury that will keep him off the field for a month, Hansi Flick has smiled at the news coming from the Barça infirmary.
After five months on the sidelines, Andreas Christensen has fully recovered from his tendinopathy in the left Achilles and will be available to the German coach in the coming days. Although he will not be present in the cup match against Betis this Wednesday, the center-back will receive medical clearance for the next league match against Getafe.
A Key Return for Hansi Flick and Barça
This was confirmed by Flick himself in the press conference prior to the clash against the verdiblancos, where he stated that the Danish player "can return on Saturday in Getafe". In this way, the Barça coach recovers a key piece at a crucial moment, as the defender's return at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez will help mitigate the absence of Iñigo and will add depth to the squad amid uncertainties regarding the futures of Ronald Araujo and Eric García.
Christensen was only able to play for 26 minutes in the first match of the season against Valencia, and since then his physical problems kept him sidelined until this second week of January. Now, once recovered from this setback, the Nordic player is preparing to play a key role in Barça during the second half of the season.
