Barcelona coach Hansi Flick is hoping teenage star Lamine Yamal is fit to face Valencia in La Liga on Sunday after taking a knock.
The 19-year-old winger did not train with his team-mates on Saturday but instead worked by himself at the training ground.
“For tomorrow we have to wait, I cannot say it today,” Flick told reporters Saturday.
“We have to decide if it’s better that he rests or he starts from the beginning, I’ll speak with him and we’ll decide that.
“Lamine is a player who likes to play football.”
Flick said Yamal will travel with the team to Mestalla stadium, where Barca are looking to continue their 100 percent start to the season.
“He trained separately and everything was good, he will travel with us tomorrow,” said Flick.
“He took a hit and he had some pain so we said it’s better that he trains separately,” added the coach.
“After the training he said everything was good so he will travel and hopefully he can play tomorrow.”
