Barcelona received boost with Lionel Messi returning to training ahead of season resumption.
The league leaders were concerned that their talisman would miss the opening fixture when the season resumes.
LaLiga is set to resume action after a three-month hiatus due to Covid-19 pandemic.
Barcelona return to action with a trip to Mallorca on June 13 and the team was worried that the diminutive star would miss the game as he was absent from last Friday’s group training session after struggling with a thigh strain.
The Argentine had taken part in the first two training sessions but was missing on Wednesday and Friday.
The club reported that the six-time Ballon d’Or winner was suffering from a minor knock and was expected to return to full training in a few days.
