Barcelona's LaLiga game with Osasuna, postponed earlier this month due to the death of the Catalan club's doctor Carles Minarro Garcia, has been rescheduled for March 27th, the Spanish federation (RFEF) said on Monday.

Both teams had announced the line-up on March 8th, and the players went to warm up, before hosts Barcelona declared that the game was postponed through the stadium speakers.

Osasuna are scheduled to visit Athletic Bilbao on March 28th, just a day after the rescheduled match. League leaders Barcelona are set to host Girona on March 30th.

Spanish media reports said Barcelona were considering appealing the RFEF decision due to Raphinha and Ronald Araujo, who are expected to play for Brazil and Uruguay in the World Cup qualifiers on March 21st and 25th, being unavailable to play on March 27th.
