Messi and Alba possibly return from injury ahead of UCL clash against Inter (AS)

Leo Messi and Jordi Alba are going to return from their injuries. Both of them were were expected to return next week, when Barcelona will play against Inter in the Champions League and Sevilla in La Liga.

Messi was diagnosed with a stretch in the adductor of the left leg and was ruled out for of seven to ten days. It seems very fair that he could return before Inter since it has only been 7 days since his injury, but Messi makes an effort to be presented in the second game of the Champions League.

Alba could also consider the option of joining the training sessions on Monday. His bicep was injured two weeks ago, in the match against Dortmund. Although the club did not want to give a prediction, it was leaked that he would be out around fifteen or twenty days.
