PSG: Luis Enrique compares Pedri to Harry Potter

If FC Barcelona is about to recover Joan Garcia and Robert Lewandowski, it has lost Pedri for a little while. The midfielder injured the hamstring in his left leg during the Clasico. “The approximate duration of his unavailability will depend on the evolution of the injury” was content to summarize the Blaugranas in their press release.

The Spanish media initially reported an absence of three weeks but according to A.S.it will be more like double! The 22-year-old will have to observe 6 weeks of rest. His return is not expected before mid-December. He would miss 8 matches, including the confrontations against Athletic and Atlético de Madrid in La Liga, plus Chelsea in the Champions League. He will also forfeit the next meeting with Spain.
