FC Barcelona's midfield is once again affected by physical problems. Just as Hansi Flick had finally managed to have almost the entire squad available, a new setback brings uncertainty back to the midfield.

The player affected is Frenkie de Jong, a key figure in the coach's plans, who could be out for a month after getting injured in training this Thursday. According to the initial diagnosis, the Dutchman suffers a tear in the biceps femoris. His case comes at a time when Barça had just recovered Pedri for the match against Levante, although De Jong’s absence opens up a significant gap in the midfield again.

If this initial report is confirmed, the midfielder's absence would leave Barcelona without him for the next seven matches across all competitions. Awaiting the official medical report, early information does not inspire optimism.
