Barcelona star Adama Traore was forced to sit out their penultimate training session ahead of this weekend’s derby trip to Espanyol.
La Blaugrana head to the RCDE Stadium on Sunday night with Xavi’s charges aiming to boost their Champions League qualification hopes.
However, despite appearing certain to retain his starting role against Vicente Moreno’s hosts, he could now face a fitness battle.
According to reports from Mundo Deportivo, the Spanish international sat out training this morning due to a stomach problem.
The club’s medical staff are confident he will be ready to face Espanyol but they will make a late decision on him in the next 24 hours.
