Frenkie de Jong today has returned to group training in what is a massive boost for Barcelona. Although he didn’t take part in the entire session, just the fact that he’s back will be a huge relief for the Blaugrana as the fixtures start piling up, with the start of the Champions League.
De Jong has been bothered by an ankle problem for some time now, with him missing games last September, October and November following an initial sprain. However, it resurfaced in March and he played just once since, in a Clasico, where a tackle from Fede Valverde saw him being stretchered out.
