He stressed that the team must carefully manage their workload, with a congested fixture schedule ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRaphinha says he is ready to start, but we are taking things step by step. We have a lot of matches in a short period, and we need to manage the situation carefully,\u201d Flick said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Brazilian forward has scored 14 goals in eight appearances for Barcelona this season. He was available for Brazil during the international break, but an injury ruled him out of Barcelona\u2019s victories over Getafe in La Liga and Galatasaray in the Champions League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, Dutch midfielder De Jong has yet to feature for Barcelona this season due to a knee problem sustained during the World Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe gives us another option in midfield. He is training well and is ready to play some minutes.

We need to manage his minutes, but it is important that he enjoys playing football,\u201d Flick said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the clash with Betis, Barcelona face two major challenges: an away trip to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Tuesday, followed by the highly anticipated <strong>El Cl\u00e1sico against Real Madrid<\/strong> five days later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has confirmed that Raphinha and Frenkie de Jong have recovered from their injuries and could feature in Saturday\u2019s match against Real Betis in Seville.
