Tuesday’s Champions League match at Inter
Milan despite fracturing his arm two weeks ago.
The Argentine is a surprise inclusion though his
name is marked with an asterisk saying “the
player travels without the medical all-clear”.
He was initially ruled out for around three weeks
after suffering the injury during a 4-2 win over
Sevilla.
Messi has missed the 5-1 win over Real Madrid
and a 2-0 victory over Inter.
The forward returned to training last week but
was not expected to feature for Barcelona for at
least another week.
Coach Ernesto Valverde said on Friday he had
not ruled Messi out of playing but was
concerned about rushing him back.
Barcelona are currently top of Group B after
winning all of their games in the Champions
League, while opponents Inter sit in second –
their only defeat coming against the Spanish
side.
