Barcelona coach Hansi Flick has expressed his excitement over the return of midfielder Frenkie de Jong, who is now available for selection after recovering from an ankle injury. The Dutch international will be included in the squad for Tuesday’s UEFA Champions League match against Swiss champions Young Boys.
De Jong, 27, has been sidelined since April due to the injury, which also kept him from participating in the European Championship this summer. His return comes as a significant boost for Barcelona, especially as they look to secure crucial points in the Champions League.
“This is super good news to have Frenkie back with us,” Flick stated during a news conference on Monday. “Whether it’s for five or 10 minutes, he’s very important for us.” His presence is expected to enhance the team’s dynamics on the field, providing valuable experience and s.
Flick praised de Jong’s commitment and attitude during his recovery, highlighting how he remained engaged with the team throughout his absence. “Frenkie’s attitude is great; he’s been involved with the team, and he’s been willing to help the team. We needed his presence,” Flick added.
As Barcelona prepares for the crucial match against Young Boys, the inclusion of de Jong could prove pivotal. His ability to control the midfield and contribute both defensively and offensively makes him an integral part of Flick’s plans. Fans and teammates alike are eager to see how de Jong’s return will influence the team’s performance in the Champions League as they aim for success in the tournament.
