Barcelona midfielder Frenkie De Jong has returned to training with the rest of his Barcelona teammates, after five months of absence.

According to COPE’s Victor Navarro, De Jong underwent partial group training with his teammates but his return to training is a good sign that his full recovery is close.

De Jong has not trained with Barcelona since injuring his ankle during El Clasico back in April.

Dani Olmo on the other hand is going to be out for five weeks, after sustaining a hamstring injury.
