Barcelona will lock horns with Las Palmas on Saturday afternoon as they continue their quest for the La Liga title.
Leading up to the game, the Blaugrana have received great news on the fitness front as manager Hansi Flick appears set to welcome back two players to the squad for the weekend.
Indeed, as reported by Fabrizio Romano, Barcelona forward duo Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres have returned to regular training with the group ahead of the clash against Las Palmas on Saturday.
Yamal has been out of action since before the previous international break after suffering an ankle injury during the UEFA Champions League clash against Crvena Zvezda.
While the issue was never seen as a major one, the Blaugrana have been cautious with the Golden Boy winner considering that it was the same problem that kept Frenkie de Jong out of action for an extended period.
Yamal had resumed part training with the group earlier this week and today he has trained regularly with the entire squad in a positive update.

Meanwhile, Ferran has been out of action since early October after suffering a hamstring problem during the game against Deportivo Alaves.
The forward had been working hard on his recovery, even training on off days to quicken his comeback right after the international break but it was not to be.
Now though, having done parts of sessions with the group, the ex-Manchester City man has trained regularly with the squad and appears to be on track to return to the squad against Las Palmas.
Meanwhile, Ronald Araujo also did part of the session with the group as he works his way towards regaining full fitness. A return this weekend appears unlikely for the Uruguayan.
