> “Marc Bernal was included in the squad, and in the end, FC Barcelona sent us a medical report indicating he was experiencing discomfort. He’s recovered well, which we’re very happy about because he’s an important player. He wasn’t able to be with us this season, but possibly in the next window, if everything is normal and he’s working well and in good condition, he’s a player we could call up. Football has these processes: sometimes there are discomforts and it takes time to recover,” he told reporters.

> “It’s normal, it doesn’t keep us up at night, and we’ve done our job. The Federation’s medical services are always in contact with the medical services of all the clubs. There’s very good communication, and they came to the conclusion that it was best for Marc to rest these days because it would be very good for him to recover from the discomfort he was having in his tibia, because he had periostitis, which is what the medical report sent to us by FC Barcelona said.”
