Barcelona and Spanish midfielder Andres lujan Iniesta has recovered from a calf strain and is available for Sunday's La Liga clash at Valencia.We will be careful not to rush him back, coach Luis Enrique said on Saturday.
Iniesta, who has been ruled out since sustaining a calf strain injury in the La Liga 'Clasico' at Real Madrid at the end of October, was "in good shape", Luis Enrique told a news conference.
However, he cautioned that it was important to be "careful"with the Spain playmaker, suggesting Iniesta is unlikely to be included in the starting line-up at Valencia's Mestalla stadium.
"He has clearly improved and he is back in training with his teammates the past few days," Luis Enrique said.
Iniesta has missed five matches for Barcelona and two games with Spain's national team while recovering.
Barcelona, trailing league leader Madrid in second place,faces a tough visit to Valencia on Sunday.
