Barcelona announced that it will have U.S. men’s national team right back Sergiño Dest back from injury for the club’s Europa League quarterfinal second leg against Eintracht Frankfurt.
In the round-of-16 second leg against Galatasaray, the fullback suffered a hamstring injury just hours before the U.S. roster for the last set of World Cup qualifiers was set to be announced. While Dest missed all three of the USMNT’s March qualifiers, he only missed four games for Barcelona—including a dominant 4–0 Clásico win over Real Madrid on March 20.
On Thursday, Barcelona will host Frankfurt after a 1–1 draw in an entertaining first leg that saw the German side take the lead right after halftime and still hold on for the draw despite a 78th-minute red card.
