🎙️ Will he make it for the Clásico? Joan García reveals his return date

Since he was injured at the Carlos Tartiere, Joan García has been working to return to the starting lineup at Barcelona and is now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. 

In fact, it was the goalkeeper himself who gave the latest update on his health status to the Movistar team during the basketball game between FC Barcelona and Valencia Basket in the Euroleague.

"The knee is doing well, everything's fine. Yes, about a month more or less. We'll see how I progress, but for now, everything's going well," he explained on Movistar Plus.

He'll miss El Clásico

If his own predictions are met, the goalkeeper will miss El Clásico on October 26, although Szczesny himself has recently stated just the opposite, saying that he expects García to be back as the starter that day.
