Ter Stegen in FC Barcelona squad to face Celtic FC

The German goalkeeper has put his hamstring troubles behind him and is named in the list of eighteen players for the first Champions League fixture of the season

Luis Enrique has picked his eighteen players for the 2016/17 Champions League opener against Celtic on Tuesday at 8.45pm CET.

The big news is the return of goalkeeper Marc-André Ter Stegen, who sat out the game against Alavés with hamstring trouble.

The complete squad for the game is thus as follows: Ter Stegen and Jasper Cillessen are in goal while the outfield players are Gerard Piqué, Ivan Rakitic, Sergio, Arda Turan, Andrés Iniesta, Luis Suárez, Messi, Neymar, Rafinha, Mascherano, Paco Alcácer, Jordi Alba, Digne, Sergi Roberto, André Gomes and Umtiti.

That means no places for Denis Suárez, Aleix Vidal, Jérémy Mathieu or Jordi Masip.
