Barca squad list for Valencia Copa del Rey match: Olmo back

Barcelona's Dani Olmo has been medically cleared and called up for Thursday night's Copa del Rey quarter-final against Valencia at Mestalla (21:30 CET).

Olmo suffered an injury on 18 January during the match against Getafe and the medical services determined that he was suffering from an overload in the soleus muscle of his right leg.

For that reason, the midfielder has missed the last four La Liga games against Valencia and Alaves, as well as the Champions League games against Benfica and Atalanta.

Gavi, who suffered a concussion to his head against Alavés and has been ruled out for a few days by medical protocol, is not included in the list of those called up to face Valencia.

Also missing from the list are long-term injuries to Marc-André ter Stegen and Marc Bernal, as well as the injured Andreas Christensen.

Barcelona's squad list is made up of:

Cubarsi, Balde, Araujo, Inigo Martínez, Ferran, Pedri, Lewandowski, Raphinha, Iñaki Peña, Pablo Torre, Fermín, Casadó, Pau Víctor, Lamine Yamal, Olmo, de Jong, Kounde, Eric, Szczesny, Kochen, Héctor Fort and Gerard Martín.
