Neymar isn't the only Barcelona superstar who's available to play in Monday's Joan Gamper Trophy match following a spell on the sidelines.

After Barcelona's first-team training session at the Ciutat Esportiva on Monday morning, it was announced that Xavi Hernandez, who suffered a "slight" calf strain in training two weeks ago, will also be eligible to take the pitch against Mexican club León.

The match will see Barcelona's whole squad be officially presented to home supporters an hour ahead of kickoff.
