Ronald Koeman finished with questions about the past: ‘Don’t worry about me anymore’ | Football

sport">The Dutch coach will play with Barça against Valencia on Sunday and may then have Sergio Aguero available for the first time. The Argentine has not yet played an official game for Barcelona.

sport">“He has made a lot of progress lately and played 20 to 25 minutes in Wednesday’s exhibition game. He is in good shape,” Koeman said during a press conference on Saturday. “He doesn’t have a match rhythm or the right condition yet, but that is due to making minutes. He has a chance to be in the selection and can add a lot to the team.”

sport">Aguero came over from Manchester City on a free transfer this summer, but his debut is still delayed due to a calf injury. The striker made his unofficial debut for Barcelona on Wednesday in the closed exhibition game with third division team Cornellà (2-2). Aguero was immediately accurate.

The fate

sport">Koeman also has Ansu Fati (18) back, but he does not want to put too much pressure on his young attacker. “He is making progress every day, but he has been out for a long time. Then you can’t return in two weeks,” says Koeman. “We have three games next week and he can’t play them all. We have to decide what is best for the team.” Fati suffered a serious knee injury in November of last year.

sport">FC Barcelona will face Dinamo Kiev on Wednesday in the Champions League and next weekend rival Real Madrid will be the opponent.
