Lamine Yamal’s injury woes have resurfaced. The teenage sensation felt discomfort in his groin after Barcelona’s clash with PSG, forcing him out of the upcoming LaLiga showdown against Sevilla.
The Barca No.10 is now expected to be sidelined for at least two to three weeks, depending on how quickly he responds to treatment.
This comes as a blow to Hansi Flick, who has relied on Yamal’s spark in attack throughout the early stages of the season.
The 17-year-old has already delivered in front of goal this campaign, scoring twice and assisting three times in just five appearances: four in LaLiga and one in the Champions League. His creativity and pace have been a constant threat for opposition defenses.
However, the recurring groin issue has disrupted his rhythm. The Spaniard has already missed four matches this season due to the same problem, raising concerns about his fitness management.
Barcelona fans will be hoping for a swift recovery, but with the packed schedule ahead, Flick will have to find solutions in his absence. The young forward’s return is eagerly anticipated, yet Barca cannot afford to rush him back and risk aggravating the injury.
