Lamine Yamal is once again out of problems in the pubic area. The injury, which the 18 -year -old superstar of FC Barcelona had undertook for four competitive games between the beginning and end of September, started again after the 1-2 against PSG on Wednesday, the Catalans said. The game in the Champions League was the first playing player in the world for the 200 million euro market value from the start since its failure. Previously, he was substituted 30 minutes before the end of the game in the 2-1 win over Real Sociedad.

The downtime Lamine Yamals estimated Barça for two to three weeks. The foreign striker certainly misses the league game at FC Sevilla (Sunday, 4:15 p.m.) and the international break, while Spain meets Georgia (October 11) and Bulgaria (October 14) in the World Cup qualification. In October, Barcelona will play against FC Girona at home on the 18th, also in front of a home backdrop in the premier class against Olympiacos and on weekends (October 26) away in Clásico against Real Madrid. For the leaders, Lamine Yamals should be priority for this game.

Meanwhile, Spain’s national coach Luis de la Fuente commented on the criticism of Barcelona coach Hansi Flick. Lamine Yamal suffered the injury during the September international break, where he played both games from the start. The Spanish Association was then before pretending to use his star player with painkillers. De La Fuente now said: “We take zero risk. Everyone who comes to us are healthy. And if they play, only because they are fit. If they leave, then only because we think they can’t play.” There is no dispute with Flick. But de la Fuente thought that Flick as a former national coach had “more sympathy”.
