Bardghji sets off alarms over a possible serious knee injury

FC Barcelona

The training session at Barça on Monday left a worrying piece of news with Roony Bardghji as the main focus. The Swedish winger had to leave the session with clear signs of pain, and he now remains pending medical tests to determine the exact extent of the problem.

The situation comes with an extra dose of bad luck, too, in fantasy terms. In recent days, speculation had been growing about a possible move to a LaLiga team, such as Valencia, a transfer that would have radically changed his importance for managers.

Bardghji joined training after being left out of Hansi Flick's plans for the triangular tournament in Udine. According to the information published, early impressions are not good and there is concern about a serious knee injury.

The Swedish attacker was unable to complete the work with the rest of the group after an incident that set off alarms at the Barça. The medical services carried out an initial check on the pitch, and the player left the field showing signs of intense pain.

The diagnosis, pending the tests

The main uncertainty now lies in the medical examinations that must determine the real extent of the issue. With no official confirmation yet, the problem could affect the cruciate ligament and, if that scenario is confirmed, the time on the sidelines would be several months.

The case is even more worrying because Bardghji already suffered a serious knee injury in the past that kept him out of action for around ten months. It remains to be seen whether this new setback affects the same joint and what the exact severity is.

His situation could also completely change the club's transfer plans. If a long-term injury is ultimately confirmed, the winger's exit this summer market would be practically ruled out, and the blaugrana club will issue a statement once everything is confirmed.
