Barcelona’s first left -back Alejandro Balde could report to three weeks after an injury that manager Hansi Flick warned, “not so good”.
Balde was forced in the first half by Barcelona’s narrow 1-0 win to Leganes on Saturday evening. The full -back with Jethasen sank to the lawn shortly before the interval after making an release on the edge of his own box.
The graduate of the academy, Gerard Martin, offered a natural replacement for Balde in Butarque when Barcelona, thanks to Jorge Saenz’s own goal, pressed all three points from a difficult trip to the capital. However, there are real concerns that the Catalans may be able to be for several important devices without their full -back.
Flick had tried to reserve the judgment about the seriousness of soon to be injured. “I can only say that we have to wait,” said the German boss after the game to be gathered. Nevertheless, Flick had already admitted that “Balde is not so good”. First reports from Mundo Deportivo claim that the left-back could be equipped with an axis body problem for two to three weeks.
Almost every injury will force Balde to miss the second stage of the Champions of the Champions League in Barcelona against Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday, but there are many important games on the horizon.
Flicks Führer of La Liga organize Celta Vigo and Mallorca in the league before starting on Saturday, April 26, in an important Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid – exactly two weeks after Balde suffered his injury.
If the 21-year-old is forced to recover for three weeks, he would also suspend the first leg of a potential semi-finals of the Champions League, which will take place on April 29 or 30.
Balde was not the only concern of Barcelona’s only injury this weekend. The central defender Ronald Araujo was also removed at halftime, although Flick quickly played down all the concerns about the Uruguayan. “Araujo had minor problems,” he noticed, “but nothing more.”
