According to "Marca" report, if all goes well, Juan Garcia is expected to enter the Barcelona squad when they face Celta Vigo next week. Even if he is not selected, he will return against Bilbao after the international break.

On September 27, Juan Garcia underwent arthroscopic surgery for a torn medial meniscus in his left knee. It was originally expected that he would need to rest for 4 to 6 weeks and is currently recovering well. The technical team believes that his comeback is close.

Although Juan Garcia has begun individual court training and is able to withstand the gradually increasing load well, it will take several weeks for him to return to full game fitness. However, he is likely to be partially involved in the team's training next week. There is optimism within the club, but also caution.

Szczesny performed well during the absence of Juan Garcia. In last weekend's Spanish El Clasico, the latter was one of the best players in Barcelona's team.
