Barcelona have been handed a timely boost ahead of their Champions League showdown with Chelsea with Marcus Rashford back to training.

The England international missed the Blaugrana’s victory over Athletic Club and he is expected to be ready for action at Stamford Bridge.

Sadly, Pedri will be missing in action against Enzo Maresca’s men with the midfielder’s hamstring recovery slowing at a crucial stage. 

Rashford’s news come at the perfect moment for Hansi Flick, who has enjoyed a promising start to the European campaign.

With Ferran Torres finding form and Raphinha also back, Flick suddenly has a welcome selection dilemma in attack.
