  • hace 9 años
Sant Joan Despí (Spain), 1 Dec (EFE).- French defender Jérémy Mathieu, who started in Barcelona's 1-0 victory over Valencia at the Mestalla, was unable to train with the rest of his teammates Monday because of a viral infection.



According to club doctors, how the illness develops will determine when the player returns to training.



Without Mathieu and Thomas Vermaelen, who will have an operation Tuesday to solve his hamstring problems, the Blaugranas began preparations for their debut in the Copa del Rey, in Huesca at 10pm Wednesday.



The rest of the first team squad trained at the Joan Gamper sports complex and were joined by Barça B's Munir El Haddadi.
