Barcelona squad list for Atalanta clash

Barcelona will face Atalanta in the Champions League on Wednesday (21:00) without striker Dani Olmo and defender Andreas Christensen, who has not been included in Hansi Flick's squad due to injury.

The Danish centre-back suffered a soleus injury in his right leg in training on Monday which will keep him out for around three weeks. Meanwhile, the Catalan playmaker is still recovering from an overload in the same muscle that has kept him out of the last two games against Benfica (4-5) and Valencia (7-1).

The absence of both players for the match against the Italian side is in addition to those of goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen, defender Inigo Martinez and midfielder Marc Bernal, who are also injured.

The main news is the presence of Ansu Fati, who the club seem to be looking for a way out and who practically does not count for the staff headed by Flick.

The 'Cules' squad list to face Atalanta at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys in the last matchday of the Champions League Phase is as follows: Szczesny, Inaki Pena, Kochen (goalkeepers); Cubarsi, Balde, Araujo, Kounde, Héctor Fort, Gerard Martin (defence); Casado, Gavi, Pedri, De Jong, Pablo Torre, Fermin (midfielders); Ferran, Lewandowski, Ansu Fati, Raphinha, Pau Victor and Lamine Yamal and (forwards).
