Josep Guardiola has confirmed that Thierry Henry will miss the match against Dynamo Kiev. A hamstring problem will keep him on the sidelines for six or seven days. Meanwhile, reserve team hopeful Gai comes into the squad.

Guardiola will have to put together a forward line without Henry, Bojan and, possibly, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is still carrying an ankle knock. However, the squad can count on plenty of attack minded players such as Pedro, Jeffren, Messi, Iniesta and Gai.

Gai and Espasandín

The young Israeli star joined Monday afternoon’s training session along with Barça Atlètic team-mate, Victor Espasandín. The session lasted about an hour and was open to the media. Espasandín has not been included in the squad.
