From the source

Barcelona have continued to involve three academy prospects in first-team training as Hansi Flick prepares his side for Saturday’s La Liga clash against Alaves. Indeed, as per Mundo Deportivo, Guillem Victor, Alex Campos and Ebrima Tunkara were all involved in Friday’s final session at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper, with the manager assessing his options ahead of the game.

The continued presence of the youngsters comes at a difficult time for Barcelona, who are dealing with several injuries, particularly in defence. Jules Kounde has been ruled out after failing to return to training with the group, while Eric Garcia, Andreas Christensen and Xavi Espart also remain unavailable.

Flick has once again turned to Barça Atletic to address the shortage of defensive options. Both youngsters could have an opportunity to make the matchday squad, although their inclusion is not yet confirmed.
