According to Spanish "World Sports", Barcelona young player Bernal is getting closer to his return, and he is expected to get a clearance for the national team game.

Bernal has been away from the field for more than a year after having a torn anterior cruciate ligament on his left knee and was also accompanied by an lateral meniscus injury.

Recently, Bernal has been working very hard to resume training. He may obtain approval from the team doctor after the national team match day and make a formal comeback.

Bernal has been registered as a first-team player in Barcelona and will wear the No. 22 jersey in La Liga. This number has also appeared on the team's Champions League roster and has been officially confirmed.
