The Frenchman will be an option for Xavi if he is needed against Espanyol

Ousmane Dembele is raring to go. The French winger is set to come back on Monday December 26, after France's World Cup final defeat. He has had some days off but is ready to get going again.

Xavi can work with him for four days, in theory if there are no rest days, before the game against Espanyol.

Dembele played six games at the World Cup and finished as runner up, along with Jules Kounde.

Both players are set to be available for Xavi to call on against Espanyol.

Dembele has five goals and seven assists in 21 games this season.
