FC Barcelona finished Tuesday's encounter against Aston Villa with an added concern. Rodri Hernández had to leave the pitch at half-time due to muscular discomfort in the calf area.

The midfielder was unable to continue in the match corresponding to the fourth matchday of the group stage and made way for Marc Bernal after the teams went back into the dressing rooms. The situation creates uncertainty within the Blaugrana squad, who face a demanding commitment this coming Sunday.

Barça will take on Atlético de Madrid in a key match for the LaLiga lead. A possible absence of Rodri would be a major setback for the team, which is now waiting to see how the player develops over the next few hours.

The player is scheduled to undergo medical tests this Wednesday. These examinations will help determine the exact extent of the discomfort and whether there is an injury or if the issue ultimately turns out to be nothing more than a scare.

For now, there is no definitive diagnosis and no time on the sidelines has been confirmed. The coming hours will clarify whether Rodri Hernández will be available for the crucial clash against Atlético de Madrid.
