The Gabon international striker is quick, a great goalscorer and versatile in attack

Barcelona face Espanyol on Sunday with some line up doubts, including Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

The forward has been training for a week and there is a chance he could be handed a start. There are three different formulas for Xavi to mull over.

The first is for Ferran Torres up front, with the Spaniard moving to the right flank, In that case, Adama would take a step back and play in place of Dani Alves in defence. 

Another is to use Ferran Torres on the left wing, Auba up front and Adama on the right wing. Gavi would be sacrificed if that happened.

However Xavi was happy with the team against Atletico so he might only want to replace Alves with Dest and keep everything the same. In that case, Auba will be on the bench and waiting for his chance again.
