Every body: Raphinha s recovery is progressing well and he is expected to travel to Vigo with Barcelona

Daily Sports reported on November 4 that Rafinha is recovering well from his injury and Barcelona has not ruled out the possibility of him traveling to Vigo with the team.

Since Rafinha retired due to injury in the 65th minute of the game against Real Oviedo, Rafinha has never played for Barcelona again. After medical examination, the Barcelona team doctor diagnosed that he had injured the biceps in the middle of his right thigh, and it was expected that he would need to rest for about 3 weeks. However, more than 6 weeks have passed since the recovery was not as good as expected.

After the national team match day in October, there was news that Rafinha's injury had recurred, preventing him from returning before the game against Girona. In fact, a week before that, Raphinha participated in part of the team training on Wednesday, but missed training the next day, which once again triggered rumors that he might be injured again. Barcelona denied this and said that Rafinha was not feeling well enough to return against Real Madrid.

Since then, Barcelona has not given a specific return timetable for Rafinha. Although Raphinha has not yet fully returned to normal training, the atmosphere in the Barcelona dressing room is very optimistic that he is approaching the final stage of his recovery.

Rafinha did not appear in the match list against Elche and Club Brugge, but according to sources, he may go to Vigo with Barcelona. As for whether he will be able to play against Celta Vigo, it is still unknown because Barcelona will not force him to play anyway.

Ancelotti did not include Raphinha in the Brazilian national team list

It is expected that Raphinha will begin to gradually re-participate in Barcelona team training this week. This will be verified in the next few days, and there is no need to worry about the pressure brought by the Brazilian national team call-up.

Ancelotti had to exclude Raphinha from the Brazil national team roster announced yesterday, so even if he can board the plane to Vigo, Ancelotti's only option is to consider using him only if other players are injured.

In fact, this is also a concern of the Barcelona coaching staff. Even if Rafinha can recover in time, Flick may not arrange for him to play against Celta.

Flick not only misses the Brazilian player on the court, but also misses him very much in daily training. As captain of Barcelona, ​​Rafinha's presence is crucial. So far this season, Rafinha has only participated in 7 games (6 La Liga games and 1 Champions League game), contributing 3 goals and 2 assists.
