Ernesto Valverde has been talking all things Espanyol ahead of Saturday’s La Liga trip to the Cornella-El Prat.
The Barcelona boss spoke about Arthur and Luis Suarez, as well as Samuel Umtiti’s situation and Riqui Puig’s role with the team.
Here are the best bits.
Valverde on Suarez and Arthur
We are going to wait until after today’s training session. They trained yesterday but let’s wait and see. We’ve got some time as well on the matter. It’s not 100 per cent clear, but let’s be optimistic.
Valverde on Suarez’s knee issues
He’s been having some treatment the last few days.
