Barcelona have received encouraging news regarding Patricio Pacifico’s recovery, with the 20-year-old defender taking an important step towards returning to action after suffering a serious knee injury earlier this year.
According to Mundo Deportivo, the Uruguayan has been discharged from the medical centre and has resumed working on the training pitches at the Ciutat Esportiva.
Pacifico’s progress is actually a significant development for Barça Atletic, particularly given the lengthy recovery period initially anticipated following his injury. The defender is now entering a new phase of rehabilitation, with the possibility of returning to competitive action around February 2027, depending on how his recovery progresses.
