Not to mention the injuries. Hansi Flick’s players will have to do without Lamine Yamal. The Spanish star was injured the previous day against Leganes. Number 19 will be absent for the next 3 weeks. A hard blow for the Barcelonans before the clash against Atletico Madrid this Saturday evening. A meeting which could prove decisive in the fight for the title.
At a press conference this Friday, Hansi Flick wanted to play down the situation despite this enormous loss. “ We have to accept this injury and the fact that he is not available. We have several options to replace it although we haven’t decided yet,” he told the journalists present at a press conference.
Ferran Torres starting against the Colchoneros?
Who will replace Lamine Yamal in the starting 11 for the match against Atletico Madrid. The German coach could well field Ferran Torres from the kick-off. The Spanish international remains on good form with no less than 4 goals in the last 5 matches in all competitions. Statistics that could work in his favor for this La Liga shock.
