Barcelona squad list for Atletico Madrid showdown
Manchester City loanee Joao Cancelo, who is struggling with physical problems, is a last-minute absentee for FC Barcelona's clash against Atletico Madrid at the Civitas Metropolitano on Sunday.
The main new addition to the list is the presence of Marcos Alonso, who has been training with the team for a few days after undergoing surgery earlier this year to resolve a lower back problem.
On the other hand, although Xavi Hernandez practically took him for granted, Ferran Torres is still not in the squad, which also includes the long-term injured Gavi and Alejandro Balde.
Also missing are Pedri and Frenkie de Jong. With Cancelo out, Xavi has a problem in defence, as the Portuguese replaced the injured Balde and will now have to improvise a left-back.
Goalkeepers: Ter Stegen, Inaki Pena and Kochen.
Defenders: Araujo, Inigo Martinez, Christensen, Marcos Alonso, Kounde, Cubarsi and Hector Fort.
Midfielders: Fermin, Oriol Romeu, Sergi Roberto, Gundogan and Casado.
Forwards: Lewandowski, Raphinha, Joao Felix, Vitor Roque, Lamine Yamal and Marc Guiu.
