Pedri is a special player and he changes the team by himself. Perhaps he will be an option for the second half and I sure he can help us a lot Hansi Flick in his Valencia press conference.

While Pedri is fully recovered the same cannot be said of Frenkie De Jong who has been missing for four months.

We dont know when he De Jong will be back he still injured and we are waiting. We dont want to rush him.

However the new Barca boss had good injury news to share about Gavi

I happy to see Gavi on the pitch. He progressing well but he needs time Flick said.

Due to injuries Ilkay Gundogan is the only senior midfielder available for the game against Valencia.

Barca are also struggling to register all their players for their first La Liga game.
