Manchester United’s Champions League semi final against Barcelona looks a harder job than it did a few days ago after the news that Lionel Messi could be fit to face Sir Alex Ferguson’s men.
The 20 year old, who has been recovering in Argentina after suffering a thigh injury back in early March, has been named in the Spanish club’s squad for the league game against Recreativo Huelva at the weekend.
His return will be welcomed by the Catalan giants who are also without injured Brazilian playmaker Ronaldinho for the rest of the season.
