Barcelona was eagerly awaiting Tornike Shengelia, but a heart problem arose shortly before Eurobasket.

The 32-year-old Georgian star was diagnosed with arrhythmia and underwent tests in Barcelona. Doctors gave the green light for him to return to the national team, following a special program.

Shengelia's last appearance was on August 8 in a friendly against Estonia. Barcelona is closely monitoring his health.

The Barcelona team knows that Shengelia can play a key role this season, but they must ensure his safe integration.
