After the winger's return to training, Spanish side Barcelona are hopeful that Ousmane Dembele will be fit to play against English side, Manchester United next Wednesday.
The Frenchman has missed the last three weeks with a hamstring injury, which has ruled him out of Barcelona’s last four matches.
Barcelona will travel to Old Trafford next week for their Champions League quarter-finals first leg against Manchester United and Dembele had been expected not to feature in the game.
However, the winger participated in Barcelona’s main training session today and is on course to feature at the Theatre of Dreams.
