Barcelona’s star striker, Robert Lewandowski, is reportedly available for selection in the upcoming clash against Las Palmas.

Following concerns over Lewandowski’s fitness due to extensive playing time during the international break, Barcelona fans can now breathe a sigh of relief.

This news comes as a boost for Barcelona’s manager, Xavi Hernandez.

He is likely to field a strong lineup for the match against Las Palmas, considering the 11-day gap before their crucial Champions League quarter-final fixture against Paris Saint-Germain.

Meanwhile, the confirmation of Lewandowski’s fitness is a blow for Vitor Roque, who had hoped to step in if the striker was unavailable.

It is now likely that Roque, 19, will continue his role from the bench for Barcelona.
