Both Ibrahimovic and Messi were declared to be fully recovered from injury by Club doctors on Tuesday and will now be available to manager Josep Guardiola for the Joan Gamper Trophy.
Both players took a full part in the training session held from 9 am behind closed doors at the Joan Gamper Sports Centre. Afterwards, Club doctors informed waiting reporters that they are now cleared to play. This means that they will be available to take some part in Wednesday’s match against Manchester City in the Camp Nou.
A possible debut for Ibrahimovic: Ibrahimovic has made a complete recovery from the operation on the second metacarpal of his left hand, an injury which prevented him from playing in the recent USA tour. As such he may well make his debut in a Barça shirt on Wednesday evening.
