The upcoming game against Rayo Vallecano is an important one for FC Barcelona. Now the third fixture for them in La Liga, it is an opportunity to win their third straight game as well. However, registration concerns remain as prominent as ever.

While Joan Garcia and Marcus Rashford are already registered, with Gerard Martin also having been registered with the first team, only two notable names remained unregistered. Both Roony Bardghji and Wojciech Szczesny were left, but the latter has now been registered as well.

Barcelona finally register Wojciech Szczesny

As confirmed by SPORT, the 35-year-old Polish goalkeeper has now officially been registered by Barça with La Liga. This makes the veteran shot-stopper eligible to participate in league fixtures again after having missed out on the first two games.

Moreover, as can be confirmed through the official La Liga website as well, the Polish goalkeeper has indeed been registered. The arrival of this news was expected at some point, but it is good news for Barça that the issue has finally been resolved.

Following the confirmation of the departure of Inaki Pena this summer, Barça were left without a back-up goalkeeper to Joan Garcia. Fortunately, that will now no longer be an issue thanks to the availability of Szczesny.

One player still left unregistered for now

Roony Bardghji, however, still remains unregistered at the time of writing. Still, despite the obvious delay, the player remains optimistic it seems. For now, that is a good sign, but Barça needs to resolve his registration issue as soon as possible.
