Barcelona will be without Ronaldinho Gaúcho and Deco for Tuesday's Champions League game against Schalke 04...

The two Brazilian-born players have been ruled out of the Quarter-final first leg match against Schalke 04 on Tuesday as they have not fully recovered from their injuries.

Despite training with the rest of the squad on Sunday morning, Deco is not 100% yet and will have to "continue to work to be available for the next game", according to the medical staff.

Concerning Ronaldinho's situation, the Brazilian ace has been out of action for several weeks, but Barcelona's medical staff guaranteed that he has been working on his personal recovery program.

Meanwhile, Barcelona confirmed that Gabriel Milito and Rafael Márquez will be eligible to play against the German squad after recovering from their respective injuries.

Eto'o Worry

The Cameroonian striker suffered a calf strain in the match against Betis on Saturday and remains doubtful for Tuesday's clash.

"The forward is having treatment and how he responds in the next few hours will influence whether he is available for the game," the medical staff explained.
