Barcelona have confirmed that Dani Alves and Jordi Alba have both returned negative Covid-19 tests and will be permitted to return to training.
The news is a further boost to Xavi who has seen his squad ravaged by Covid and injuries which left the coach without 17 players for the trip to Real Mallorca on Sunday.
However, Xavi’s problems do seem to be slowly easing. Clement Lenglet and Samuel Umtiti were back in time for the trip to Mallorca, while Alba and Alves have also now been given the green light.
