Koeman talks about Araujo return.

 

"Ronald Araujo is improving. He will not be with us tomorrow because he has not yet trained with us.

 He is training alone at the moment with our physiotherapists, but first he has to train with the group to see if he is 100 percent.

" ready or not, "said Ronald Koeman at the press conference prior to the match against Elche, as quoted by Barcablaugranes. 

"Right now there are some doubts, so we have to wait. We look forward to the weekend, maybe next Wednesday.

 I don't think it's good to have an exact date [for his return]." After the home match against Elche, Barcelona will face Sevilla twice in a row, first in La Liga (Saturday, February 27) and then in the Copa del Rey (Wednesday, March 3). 

Araujo injured his ankle in the clash against Real Betis two weeks ago and has been out since. 

The 21-year-old has made 20 appearances for Barça this season, scoring one goal.
