Catalan sports paper Sport claims that Barcelona player Andrés Iniesta (25) will get the green light from the medical staff on 19 August and will that way be able to take part in the Joan Gamper Trophy game against Manchester City.
Iniesta tore a quadriceps muscle on the front of his right thigh during the league game against Villarreal on Sunday 10 May and although he played the Champions League final against Manchester United on Wednesday 27 May, he has never fully recovered from that injury. On Friday 5 June, the medical staff of the Spanish football federation confirmed that the player has torn a muscle in his thigh and he was then expected to be out for the next six to eight weeks.
