In some good news for Barcelona fans, experienced midfielder Andres Iniesta returned to training along with his team mates on Monday.

The veteran trained for a part of Barca’s routine session as he continued his recovery from a hamstring injury that he sustained against Atletico Madrid last Sunday.

Speaking on Iniesta’s absence, Ernesto Valverde had said: “Without Iniesta we lose a unique player, irreplaceable. It’s difficult to find a substitute for his because there is no-one like him in the world. Let’s hope the injury is nothing serious.”

Meanwhile, Catalan Radio said Iniesta will be fit to start the Champions League game against Chelsea on Wednesday.
