Sources close to the situation revealed that the player is improving steadily, but no final decision has yet been made regarding his immediate return to action.<\/p>\n<p>Spain are reportedly optimistic that Yamal could be available for the team\u2019s final group-stage clash against Uruguay. However, all parties involved want to avoid unnecessary pressure on the winger during this stage of his recovery.<\/p>\n<p>The latest update suggests that Barcelona and Spain share the same position on the matter.
