Lewandowski Returns to Boost Barcelona vs Inter Milan

Robert Lewandowski has returned to the Barcelona squad for the second leg of the Champions League semifinal against Inter Milan at San Siro, after recovering from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for the last four matches.

The 36-year-old striker — who has scored 40 goals this season — resumed full training over the weekend, having missed key matches including the Copa del Rey final win over Real Madrid and the 3–3 draw in the first leg against Inter.

However, Barcelona will still be without several key players:

• Alejandro Balde is yet to recover from a hamstring injury and is targeting a return in this weekend’s El Clasico
• Jules Koundé remains out with a hamstring issue picked up in the first leg
• Marc Casadó – recently returned to training
• Pablo Torre – not ready to play
• Marc Bernal – long-term injury
• Marc-André ter Stegen – not registered for Champions League

The winner of this match will face either Paris Saint-Germain or Arsenal in the final in Munich later this month.
