Suarez fit for Copa del Rey final and UCL final


The striker missed Saturday's 2-2 draw with
Deportivo on Saturday with a hamstring injury,
leading to fears he could be absent for the clashes
against Athletic Bilbao and Juventus as they look
to seal an historic treble.
"Suarez is not 100% and we didn't want to take
risks, but he should be ready for both finals,” said
Luis Enrique.
Luis Enrique also explained his decision to deny
Claudio Bravo the chance to complete a full 38-
game La Liga season by favouring Jordi Masip in
goal and praised Thomas Vermaelan after he made
his debut nearly a year after joining the club.
Luis Enrique added: "I am happy for Vermaelen
and Douglas, they did well. Thomas is a quality
player. He is experienced and can be a good
transfer for next season.
"Bravo not playing for first time this Liga? Masip
deserved a game, team goes before individual
stats for me."
The former Celta Vigo boss addressed the crowd
on the pitch at Camp Nou along with Xavi and
Andres Iniesta after his side received the trophy.
“I want to congratulate all those who are part of
Barcelona,” he said. “Thanks for all the support
and trust.
“See you in 15 days because Barcelona will
continue fighting for the Copa del Rey and
Champions League."
