According to Sport, Barcelona's internal assessment has ruled out a muscle injury for Raphinha, with initial evaluations suggesting he will be available for upcoming matches.

Raphinha has left the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper training complex after undergoing medical tests on Friday to determine the exact severity of his right thigh discomfort.

The Barcelona attacker entered the training facility shortly after 11 AM. His vehicle bypassed the media and fans gathered at the main gate, driving directly into the underground parking garage to avoid the main entrance area.

Raphinha has muscle edema in his right thigh. Barcelona's initial internal assessment is optimistic, with the club expecting him to be able to participate normally in upcoming matches. However, this does not mean manager Flick will not choose to rest him in the LaLiga restart match against Getafe on Saturday, October 10.

The Brazilian player returned early from the national team training camp during this international break. He played the full first friendly match for Brazil and the first half of the second. Raphinha started the second game wearing the captain's armband and scored the equalizer before halftime, but did not return to the field after the break due to discomfort.

Sport has learned that this morning's examinations ruled out a more serious muscle injury. Barcelona is optimistic about the player's physical condition. Although the club is not expected to issue a medical announcement today, the Brazilian Football Confederation may provide an update on the player's status.
