Alejandro Balde makes injury return.
Barcelona have confirmed that young full-back Alejandro Balde is back in the squad for their Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain on October 1st, 2025.
This comes nearly a month after the 21-year-old sustained a minor injury to his left leg during a training session on September 3rd. At the time, the extent of the injury was unclear, and no timeline was given for his recovery, sparking concern among fans.
Alejandro Balde’s return could not have come at a better time for Flick’s side, who are preparing for one of their most important fixtures of the season. His pace, defensive awareness, and attacking support down the left flank are vital components of Barcelona’s setup.
The La Masia graduate has been missed in recent weeks, and his comeback brings much-needed balance and energy to the backline. With his injury now behind him, Balde will be hoping to make an immediate impact as Barça aim for European success.
