The 19-year-old missed around nine months with a serious knee injury before returning to action last September, but he has since suffered two setbacks.

Fati picked up his latest hamstring issue during the Copa del Rey contest with Athletic Bilbao in January, but he has recently returned to training, and the club's head coach Xavi said that it would be up to the Spain international to decide when he was ready for a return to the field.

According to AS, the teenager has identified April 18 as the date for his return, when Barcelona are due to welcome Cadiz to Camp Nou.

The report claims that Fati has been 'responding well' to his recovery programme and is now pain free.

The Spaniard has scored 18 goals and registered six assists in 53 appearances for his current side since making his debut in 2019, including five goals and one assist in 10 matches this term.

The youngster decided against undergoing surgery on his latest hamstring issue despite fears that the injury could be a consistent issue. body check tags ::
