FC Barcelona has Dani Olmo, a top-level player, but who has shown a certain tendency to injuries, especially in the last two seasons, experiencing several significant physical setbacks. Below, we detail it in FCBN
There are few downsides that a signing like Dani Olmo could have for FC Barcelona. The Terrassa native is a homegrown player, having been part of the Blaugrana's youth academy, with the ability to play in various positions on the field (winger on both sides, attacking midfielder, false nine, and midfielder) and whose profile as a creative footballer, with great ability to create imbalance in the final third of the field, would clearly add a touch of quality to the Culé sporting project.
However, there was only one downside prevailing in the atmosphere: Dani Olmo's propensity for injuries. This issue quickly manifested itself at Barça, as the '20' faces his first setback as a Culé, an injury to the hamstring of his right thigh, which will keep him off the field for a period of four to five weeks.
At this point, Dani Olmo, who had already scored three goals in three matches, will be absent for a significant portion of the season, which could span from seven to nine games. He is expected to rejoin the dynamics of FC Barcelona in late October, seemingly just in time for a crucial match like the LaLiga EA Sports Clásico at the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Madrid (October 27).
Dani Olmo's Recent Injury History
Now, the issue of injuries is not unfamiliar to Dani Olmo. During the 2023/24 season, between his club and national team commitments, he missed a total of 29 games due to injuries. Additionally, in the 2022/23 season, the Catalan missed 20 games, and in the 21/22 season, he was absent for approximately 19 matches.
These figures highlight his tendency to suffer injuries recurrently. Below, on FCBN, we detail the injuries he has faced, the recovery time, and the number of games he has been forced to miss both for his clubs and the national team.
