World Sports: The previous training matches were not systematic, and the Barca coaching staff advised Xavi to use Aubameyang cautiously

According to the World Sports Newspaper, although Aubameyang is a striker who has proven his ability to score goals, the Barca coaching staff believes that in the later stages of Arsenal, his training and playing are not systematic, so the body may not be able to withstand too much of the game load, and before this match against Atletico, they advised Xavi to use Aubameyang cautiously.

In fact, fans would love to see Aubameyang perform and Barca also needs his goals, but Xavi has received advice to use Aubameyang sparingly, both physically and medically, as he has not played for Arsenal for more than two months, most recently playing for the Gunners against Manchester United on 2 December last year.

In such a situation, although Aubameyang wants to play as soon as possible, the coaching staff does not want to risk him, because he has not reached the competitive rhythm required for a game like Atletico, which means that he cannot come up with a top performance and, most importantly, if he is overburdened, he may face the risk of muscle injury.
