Robert Lewandowski has completed his recovery from a hamstring injury and is now ready to return to the pitch for "Barcelona". The club's press service confirmed the positive development today.
"I've been working hard on my rehabilitation and feel ready to help the team again," – the Polish striker might have told his teammates upon returning to full training.
Lewandowski, who is 37 years old, had been dealing with problems in his left thigh's posterior surface since early August. The injury kept the veteran forward sidelined during an important preparation period for the Catalan club.
Interestingly, his return comes at a perfect time as "Barcelona" prepares for immediate action. The forward will be available for selection in the team's very next match.
By the way, that match is scheduled for today, August 23, with "Barcelona" taking on "Levante" at 22:30. This quick turnaround gives coach little time to decide whether to start the recovered striker or ease him back from the bench.
Will Lewandowski immediately make an impact after his injury layoff? The answer comes in just a few hours.
