A new injury has affected the Frenchman Osmane Dembélé just when he was showing his best version at FC Barcelona. The attacker had been a figure in the culé victory on Wednesday, January 25 in the Copa del Rey scoring the only goal and being the offensive reference.
But the 24th minute minute of Saturday’s league game against Girona FC gave him a bill that at the moment seems very expensive, since he suffered an injury to the left thigh. Thus, Dembélé will be absent on key days for the definition of the tournaments in which the Barça team continues to compete.
The time off could be about 5 or 7 weeks, although the period could vary according to its evolution.
The truth is that, for the moment, Dembélé may not be available in the following matches in La Liga Santander: Real Betis Balompié (February 1), Sevilla (February 5), Villarreal (February 12), Cádiz (February 19) and Almería. (February 26).
Likewise, he will not be able to have action in the Europa League playoffs against Manchester United that will take place on February 16 and February 23, as well as the Copa del Rey semifinals to be played between February 8-9 and the second leg. March 1-2.
If Dembélé’s evolution is favourable, he could be back on the pitch on March 5 against Valencia.
