Barcelona fans are holding their breath after Marc Casadó left training early today due to physical discomfort. The 22-year-old midfielder walked off before completing the session, raising concerns just one day before Barça’s La Liga showdown against Real Sociedad at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys.
Medical Evaluation Pending
Sources inside the first team suggest that Casadó’s issue does not appear to be serious. The medical staff will reassess him tomorrow to determine if he can be included in the squad list. Should there be any injury preventing his participation, the club will make an official statement.
Injury Crisis Hits Barça
Barça are navigating a difficult stretch with injuries piling up. Gavi is sidelined for four to five months after undergoing surgery on his meniscus. Fermín López, Raphinha, and goalkeeper Joan García are also unavailable. Joan García recently had surgery on his own meniscus and faces a recovery period of four to six weeks.
This situation means the coaching staff are taking no chances. If a player feels discomfort, the safest option is to stop immediately and allow the medical team to conduct a full evaluation.
Positive News for Flick
On the brighter side, both Lamine Yamal and Alejandro Balde are expected to receive medical clearance in time for the Real Sociedad match. Lamine has been dealing with pubic problems, while Balde suffered a muscular injury in his left leg. Their return would provide a much-needed boost to Hansi Flick’s squad.
With so many absences, the potential availability of Marc Casadó could be crucial for Barça’s midfield depth. Fans will be hoping his setback is minor and that he can play a role in what promises to be a challenging encounter against Real Sociedad.
