FC Barcelona will still have to cope without its prodigy Lamine Yamal this Tuesday during its crucial match against Stade Brestois in the Champions League. Injured in his right ankle since the victory against Red Star Belgrade (5-2) on November 6, the young 17-year-old Spanish winger has not yet returned to training, according to Mundo Deportivo.
This package marks a blow for the Catalans, who have still not won a match this season without Yamal in the starting lineup. Already in difficulty in the league with a draw against Celta Vigo (2-2) this weekend, Barça will have to find solutions to compensate for this notable absence.
Brest could benefit from it
For their part, Éric Roy’s men, authors of an impressive run in the group stage, could take advantage of this situation. While Barça will be deprived of its main offensive booster, Brest could try to create the feat.
The probable composition: I. Peña – Koundé, Cubarsi, I. Martinez, Baldé – Pedri, Casado – Olmo, Gavi, Raphinha – Lewandowski.
