Flick says Dani Olmo available to start against Mallorca

Barcelona have good news on the injury front ahead of Tuesday’s _La Liga_ clash with Mallorca as Dani Olmo is expected to return to the starting lineup after missing out at the weekend with a minor groin issue.

That’s according to manager Hansi Flick, who also revealed that Ronald Araujo is very close to getting the medical green light to make his season debut after the Uruguayan returned to group training last week.

> “Yes, all the players except Ronald, although he is doing very well and is improving at a very good level. He is very close to being able to play, I cannot say if it will be next week, I do not want to put pressure, but the sensations are very good in training. As for Dani, he is back and we have him to start if necessary.”

Barça missed Olmo’s creativity and scoring ability in the final third in their loss to Las Palmas on Saturday, so the summer signing’s return is certainly a major boost as the _Blaugrana_ look to end their three-game winless streak to maintain top spot in the league table.
