Lamine Yamal set to return to Barcelona squad for Celta Vigo clash

Barcelona teenage superstar Lamine Yamal is set to return to the squad for the first match after the international break away to Celta Vigo and is expected to start the match on the bench, according to a report from Javi Miguel of Diario AS.

Yamal was diagnosed with an ankle injury that kept him out of last weekend’s defeat to Real Sociedad and could have ruled him out of action for as many as three weeks, but his recovery is clearly going better than expected and Lamine will at least be able to make the substitutes list for Barça’s next game.
