Barcelona's Robert Lewandowski has been declared fit to play after recovering from a hamstring injury, but his return to the starting lineup remains uncertain. Barcelona manager Hansi Flick acknowledged that while Lewandowski is "ready," it might be better for the striker to start on the bench for the upcoming match against Real Madrid.
Flick mentioned, "We will see if he can start vs Real Madrid," suggesting that the final decision on Lewandowski's involvement will depend on his fitness and how he responds in the days leading up to the game. The striker's recent absence, which included missing Barcelona's Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid, has raised concerns about rushing him back into the starting XI. However, Lewandowski's availability offers Barcelona a significant boost as they aim to maintain their dominance in both La Liga and the Champions League.
With Barcelona's defensive line also facing challenges due to injuries to key players like Jules Koundé and Alejandro Balde, Flick is evaluating his options for the match. Despite these setbacks, Barcelona remains unbeaten domestically since December and leads La Liga, putting them in a strong position for the remainder of the season.
