Per article: De Jong missed Barcelona training due to stomach flu and is likely to miss the El Clasico

Hupu reported on October 23 that according to the Spanish media "Daily Sports", the media updated Barcelona's injury situation. Dutch midfielder De Jong is reportedly feeling unwell and has returned home. He had a bad stomach flu in Catalonia. In addition, goalkeeper Ter Stegen has recovered and is training on the court with his teammates. Olmo and Rafinha are also recovering.

Barcelona is continuing to prepare for the national derby. Although the smooth recovery of Ferran Torres and Raphinha gave Barcelona coach Flick some relief, there were new twists and turns in Thursday's training - De Jong missed the training due to physical discomfort, while Christensen was still recovering from intestinal problems and was unable to catch up with the game against Olympiacos.

"Every Body" stated that Barcelona's confirmed absent players include: Ter Stegen, Juan Garcia, Garvey, Lewandowski and Olmo. Fortunately, there were no new injuries in the 6-1 victory in the Champions League. The offensive situation in the El Clasico against Real Madrid is gradually becoming clear: Yamal will form a striker with Ferran Torres, and Rafinha will serve as a starter or substitute depending on the situation. Rashford, who is in good form, is also expected to continue to play.

The return of Raphinha will allow Fermin to return to his duties as an attacking midfielder and continue his hot footwork after wearing a hat-trick in the Champions League. De Jong's recovery progress will determine the midfield configuration. Casado may come on as a substitute in the second half to complete the transition as he did in the Champions League.
