Barcelona official: Bernal gets Xu and is about to come back, De Jong participates in joint training Yamal training alone

According to the official website of Barcelona, ​​Bernal has finally made a comeback. It has been a full 382 days since the unfortunate injury to stoppage time at Vallecas Stadium on August 27, 2024, and the midfielder can finally be selected by Frick to the roster again.

On September 13, 2025, he finally got the permission of his doctor. The road to recovery is not smooth. As a product of Lamacia's youth training camp, Bernal has undergone multiple stages of recovery and has made great efforts and sacrifices to return at his best.

Although he had rejoined the team in the preseason, both the players and the club chose to wait patiently until the medical team gave the green light. This is a huge inspiration for the entire club.

Bernal made his mark early last season and started in three consecutive league games. However, in that unfortunate game at Valecas Stadium, he was injured at the last moment of the game, leaving him missing for more than a year. Now, that chapter has finally come to an end.

Bernal's return is the headline of today's training class, but Yamal did not participate, he trained alone in Sports City. Happily, De Jong participated in training with his teammates throughout the whole process.

This is Barcelona's last training session this week and their last training session before their home debut against Valencia at John Cruyff Stadium at 9 p.m. Sunday.
