Barcelona defender Gerard Pique is expected to be fit for Sunday's Clasico against Real Madrid after returning to first-team training with the Spanish champions.

The centre-back, who has been struggling with an ankle injury, missed the 7-0 win over Osasuna at the Camp Nou on Sunday afternoon.

However, the former Manchester United defender was present during a session with the Spanish champions on Monday morning, fuelling suggestions that he could make the Clasico.

Barcelona will enter the match four points behind La Liga leaders Real Madrid.
