Barca News
The Catalan newspaper Mundo Deportivo announced that there was a real disaster that occurred in Barcelona’s training today, Tuesday, as it prepares to face Almeria tomorrow in the 18th round of the Spanish League competitions.
The newspaper close to the club said that Spanish midfielder Pedri Gonzalez collapsed in training with a muscle injury that will force Xavi to exclude him from the roster for the friendly matches between Almeria and Club America of Mexico.
Given Pedri’s history with muscle injuries, the coaching staff and medical services do not want to take any kind of risk with the midfielder’s physical condition and for this reason he will be ruled out of at least these two matches.
Pedri’s absence is a real disaster for Xavi, who is suffering from a shortage in the middle of the field after the injury of Gavi, who will be absent until the end of the season.
Barcelona succeeded in qualifying for the round of 16 of the Champions League, but it is still faltering in La Liga, where it occupies third place, 7 points behind Real Madrid, who is in second place, and 9 points behind Girona, who tops the standings.
