Christensen (quadriceps) is back in Barcelona's matchday squad for Sunday's La Liga clash against Atletico Madrid after receiving medical clearance following a six-week absence, according to the club.
Analysis:Christensen is available again after spending approximately six weeks sidelined with a muscular injury. The Danish center-back gradually increased his workload throughout the week before completing full team training Saturday. Given his extended absence and limited preparation time, he is unlikely to start immediately and could initially be restricted to a substitute role as he rebuilds his match fitness. His return nevertheless provides Barcelona with additional defensive depth, particularly with Jules Kounde still sidelined by an ankle injury.
