From the source

According to SPORT, Ebrima Tunkara has trained with the Barcelona first team again as Hansi Flick assesses his options ahead of Saturday’s La Liga meeting with Alaves at the Spotify Camp Nou.

The 16-year-old midfielder joined Wednesday’s session at the Ciutat Esportiva following Barcelona’s defeat in El Clasico, giving him another opportunity to impress the German coach as injuries continue to affect the senior squad.

Tunkara had already trained with the first team last Friday, alongside Orian Goren, although the latter was the only one of the pair included in Barcelona’s squad for the match against Real Madrid.
