BARCELONA, Spain (AP) Barcelona stars Lionel Messi and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have both recovered from injury and will be available for a friendly against Manchester City, the Spanish club said Tuesday.

Barcelona medical staff said on the club's Web site that the two internationals would be available for Wednesday's match at the Camp Nou.

Messi recovered from an injury to his left leg that had kept him out of a 2-1 Spanish Supercup first leg victory over Athletic Bilbao on Sunday and an Argentina friendly last week.
