Barcelona received a big morale boost before the Valencia match at Mestalla Stadium in the quarter-finals of the Spanish King’s Cup, after Dani Olmo was confirmed fit.
The Spanish international missed the last three matches for Barça due to injury, and was supposed to return in the last match against Deportivo Alaves, but he did not.
Many questions have been raised since then about a setback, before coach Hansi Flick confirmed that there was no truth to this, and that he had only decided to postpone Olmo’s return to ensure his full recovery.
According to the newspaper “Sport”, Olmo participated in part of Barcelona’s training on Tuesday, and accordingly he will participate in the Valencia match unless he finds something new in the coming hours.
There is no doubt that the return of the 26-year-old will be very important for Barça after what he has presented throughout the season, especially since the match will be at Mestalla Stadium, which is always difficult against the big teams.
Gavi’s position regarding his presence against Valencia remains unknown, in light of Barcelona’s desire not to risk playing him after he suffered a severe concussion in the last Alaves match, which led to him being transferred to the hospital.
