After an international break that has kept many teams on hold, Barcelona resumes competition in La Liga.
This Thursday, Barça plays against Osasuna in a match postponed due to the death of a member of the medical team. This news shocked the squad, but now the team must focus on the three points.
Barcelona Arrives at the Match with Significant Absences
Barça faces this match with several significant absences, complicating the situation. One of the most notable absences is Pau Cubarsí. The young defender suffered an injury while with the Spanish national team, and although his recovery is on track, he won't be available for this match against Osasuna.

Cubarsí is expected to be ready for the next match against Girona next weekend. However, he is not the only important absence in the team.
Hansi Flick Also Loses Two Key Pieces
Barça's coach, Hansi Flick, has also confirmed two important absences that add to the list. These are Raphinha and Ronald Araujo. Both players have been working hard to return to Barcelona as soon as possible, but they won't be ready for this match.
The long journey and lack of time for optimal recovery are the reasons preventing both players from playing against Osasuna.
"Raphinha and Araujo are not going to play or be in the team. They're out," Flick announced in a press conference. Flick's decision wasn't easy, but he considers it the best for the players and the team.
Although they tried to return in time, the coach prefers not to take risks and ensure their recovery for the upcoming matches.
A Team Ready to Give It Their All
Despite the absences, Hansi Flick trusts in his team's potential. "The flight is long and it's not the most optimal situation. They have to train, they must recover and train, and then we'll see on Sunday," Flick commented on the return of the affected players.
For the coach, the best way to react to adversity is to win the match and add three more points.
The coach highlighted that the team is "fantastic" and that, despite the absences, they have the necessary quality to fight for victory. Barcelona needs the three points to continue in the fight for La Liga. Despite the absences, the team remains competitive.
