Even though there's a small chance of Gerard Pique featuring against Real Madrid on Saturday, the 34-year-old is 'practically ruled out' for the upcoming Clasico, Cadena SER's Adria Albets reports.
The centre-back was spotted at the Barcelona training ground on Wednesday morning, even though the first team has a day off.
As Albets puts it, the centre-back tried to push himself to the limit today but he didn't feel well after the session and thus very unlikely to play on the weekend.

Barcelona to sell Dembele this summer if he doesn't renew in the coming weeks: Sport
Barcelona want to extend Ousmane Dembele's contract by three years, until 2025, according to Diario Sport.
The Frenchman, whose current deal expires in 2022, will have to accept Barca's renewal offer in the coming weeks.
As per the Catalans source, no the most reliable one, the Catalans will sell the 23-year-old this summer if he doesn't sign an extension soon.
Dembele wants to continue at Camp Nou but his camp fears that Barca won't be able to meet the player's wage demands, given the club's poor financial situation.
The Blaugrana's board also want to extend the forward as he's become a key player for Ronald Koeman's team this season but they will have to sell him if he rejects a new deal.
Sport say that Juventus, Chelsea and Man United are all interested in the 23-year-old.
'We knew that if we were united, the results would come': Araujo talks Barca's 19-game unbeaten streak
“The team is very good, the group is very good. When there were bad results we knew that together we could sort it out: there is a team, a group and excellent players,” Ronald Araujo has said in an interview with Cadena SER.
“We got together more, we had talks with the leaders, the captains. We knew that if we were united, the results would come. The team is doing very well. We need to be together like this for what is to come, which is very important.”
Barcelona were 13 points behind league leaders Atletico Madrid just 10 games ago but now the Catalans are one point adrift of Diego Simeone's men.
What's more, Ronald Koeman's side are on a 19-game unbeaten streak in La Liga ahead of the upcoming clash at Real Madrid on Saturday.
