Carles Puyol has been named in the Barça squad for the first time this season, while Raf Márquez and Gianluca Zambrotta are out through injury.


Three months after undergoing surgery, the Blaugrana captain is back and has been included in the trip to Levante this weekend by coach Frank Rijkaard. The other new faces in the squad are Marc Crosas and Eidur Gudjohnsen. The trio are included while Márquez and Zambrotta are out after picking up knocks in midweek and Santi Ezquerro is omitted for technical reasons. Ronaldinho, Samuel Eto'o and Edmílson are all still out with differing injuries too.

Márquez taking no risks

The club's medical team advised the defender not to train as a precautionary measure and also told the coach not to risk him at the weekend.

Ronaldinho continues comeback
