Winner of Celta last night in the league (1-0), FC Barcelona had a more than mixed evening. Certainly, the Blaugranas are heading straight towards their 29th Spanish championship title. But the winning goal scored by Lamine Yamal from the penalty spot left a very bitter taste. The Catalan prodigy was indeed injured during the action and since yesterday, all of Spain has been holding its breath. On the Barça side, Hansi Flick did not hide his concern at a press conference.
“We have to wait until tomorrow (today, editor’s note), there is surely a small injury, because he felt something, he is not the type of player who leaves the pitch for no reason. We hope it won’t be anything serious, but we have to wait.”. Since then, the local media have mentioned an injury to the ischio of the left thigh and expected an absence of five weeks. A huge blow for the player, but also for La Roja.
End of season with Barça
Indeed, if Barça is almost guaranteed to be crowned in La Liga, the Catalan club is no longer playing anything else this season. On the other hand, the Spanish team prayed very hard that the number 10 culé would not be unavailable for too long, with the World Cup just around the corner. All these little people are now fixed. FC Barcelona has just published its medical press release.
“The examinations carried out confirmed that Lamine Yamal, first team player, suffers from an injury to the biceps femoris of his left leg. The player will follow conservative treatment. Lamine Yamal will miss the rest of the season and is expected to be available for the World Cup »we can read in the press release published by Barça.
