Clearly, this is another hard blow that FC Barcelona will have to deal with when they return from the international break. Already deprived of Pedri, Frenkie de Jong and Robert Lewandowski, the Catalan club will surely have to do without its midfielder and captain Sergi Roberto. Indeed, on its social networks, the FCB has just announced a physical problem for the La Roja international (11 caps, 1 goal), only starting twice at the start of the season (6 TCC matches, 1 goal) .
“First team player Sergi Roberto suffers from a soleus muscle injury in his right leg and will not be able to play until the problem disappears”, indicates the press release from Barça, which sees its infirmary filling up a little more. According to COPE, the 31-year-old could even miss the Clasico, scheduled for Saturday October 28 in Montjuic. Xavi, who already has a reduced squad, will have to find solutions to beat Real Madrid and hope to regain the throne of leader in La Liga.
