AS: It is extremely unlikely that Ferran Torres will participate in the Champions League in midweek, Barcelona may continue to start

On October 20, "AS" reported that the possibility of Ferran Torres being selected for Barcelona's squad against Olympiacos is extremely low.

The Spanish striker is still suffering from pain caused by overloading the hamstring muscle in his left leg, an injury caused during his time with the national team. The pain did not seem serious at first and the club did not even exclude him from the matchday squad against Girona, but as time went on the pain did not completely subside. Faced with this situation, the team doctors and technical staff decided to exclude him from the list last weekend.

He still did not participate in training this Sunday, which makes people think that Ferran Torres has not yet returned to 100% condition, and Flick may let him rest for the upcoming El Clasico.

If Ferran's absence is confirmed, Barcelona will not see the return of any players in this game, and the number of absences will reach seven. In addition to Ferran, there are Rafinha, Garvey, Olmo, Lewandowski, Joan Garcia and Ter Stegen. Therefore, Flick will have to stick with the same squad as against Girona.

However, regarding the starting eleven, he may directly start Fermin and choose to have him appear on the left to form an offensive line with Rashford and Yamal. The rest of the starting lineup seems to have been roughly determined, with Pedri, Casado and De Jong sitting in the midfield, the full-backs will be Kounde and Balde, Christensen is likely to become one of the starting central defenders, most likely partnering with Araujo, and Szczesny will continue to guard the goal.
