Abqar (leg) began a gradual return to team training Tuesday after spending several weeks on the sidelines with a muscle tear in his right leg, though he still needs to complete additional sessions before receiving full medical clearance, the club posted in Instragram stories.
Analysis:Abqar has taken an important step forward by beginning his reintegration into the group after missing Getafe's last five LaLiga matches. The center back isn't fully cleared yet and will need to continue ramping up his workload before returning to match action, leaving his status for Saturday's clash with Barcelona uncertain. Zaid Romero and Djene Dakonam have formed the central defensive pairing during his absence, so Abqar may have to prove his fitness before pushing his way back into the XI.
