Losing in the 1/8 final of the King’s Cup is only part of FC Barcelona’s problems. A few days ago, Ansu Fati returned to the game after three months of recovery. Xavi did the same on Thursday. The effects, however, were much worse.
He appeared on the pitch in the 61st minute of the match, and he had to leave 35 minutes later. Suddenly, a grimace of pain appeared on the player’s face. The coach did not delay his decision and the club has already published an official statement. “Ansu Fati has a bicep injury to the femur in his left thigh [mięsień dwugłowy – przyp.red] and tests will be needed to determine the full extent of the problem, “it wrote. The club is currently waiting for the test results.
Fati broke through to the first squad in 2020. He quickly acclimatized to the team, establishing good cooperation with Leo Messi. He played 53 matches for the club, scoring 18 goals and noting six assists. His contract is valid until the end of June 2027.
