Gündogan and Cancelo’s Physical Concerns Addressed After Alavés Clash

“Ilkay Gündogan and Joao Cancelo concluded the match against Alavés with physical issues. The German midfielder, instrumental in the triumph at Mendizorroza with a goal and an assist, sustained a knock to the back, while the Portuguese full-back was substituted at halftime due to discomfort in his left knee stemming from a strain in the medial collateral ligament he underwent in early January.

This Sunday, both players trained in the gym alongside other starters from Vitoria. Barcelona is reassuring about the physical condition of Cancelo and Gündogan. In Cancelo’s case, his eagerness to play and contribute to the team is causing some discomfort during the recovery from his knee injury. As for Gündogan, he only has minor issues resulting from a knock.”
