FC Barcelona have released updated medical reports on Samuel Umtiti and Junior Firpo and it's good news for both players. The pair have been given the green light to return to action and as such are available to play against Eibar on Saturday. 

Umtiti has been out with a foot injury since September but is still expected to remain on the bench this weekend. Todibo will line up alongside Clement Lenglet with Gerard Pique suspended. 

 

Junior is also unlikely to start against Eibar. With Jordi Alba fit and available after the international break, the former Betis man will be given more time to reach his peak fitness.
