Barcelona coach Luis Enrique upbeat over Aleix Vidal recovery

Barcelona coach Luis Enrique says Aleix Vidal is recovering well from his dislocated ankle injury.

The right-back has been doing some light training with the ball and the Barça coach was asked if he could have a chance of featuring in the Copa del Rey final against Alaves on May. 27.

"Aleix Vidal is recovering well, better than was expected according to the medical team," Luis Enrique said. "There are no doubts that when he gets back on the pitch he will recover his best form."

However, Lucho did not reveal any more details and it seems unlikely Vidal will play again this season.
