Iniesta back in Barca contention

Iniesta back in Barca contention

Andres Iniesta is set to make his comeback from injury for Barcelona's trip to Getafe on Saturday.

The Spanish playmaker has been out for three months with a thigh muscle injury.

His last game for Barca was their UEFA Champions League final success over Manchester United at the end of May.

The 25-year-old was also forced to pull out of Spain's Confederations Cup campaign this summer.

He is, however, closing in on full fitness and is expected to be back in the fold at Barca in the near future.

A viral infection has slightly delayed his return, but Pep Guardiola could return him to the heart of his midfield this weekend.
