Fermín López breaks his silence and leaves an encouraging message after being injured

Fermín López and FC Barcelona received a hard blow this Tuesday, September 3. After having a dream summer, in which he managed to win the European Championship and the gold medal at the Olympic Games, the Andalusian midfielder has suffered an abrupt 'stop' in his progress. Called up by Santi Denia for the matches that the U-21 will play during the international break, the player has been forced to return to Barcelona after being injured on the first day of training.

The player from El Campillo left the Rojita training session, and after undergoing the respective medical tests, these showed that the footballer suffers from a torn fiber in the left quadriceps, which will keep him off the pitch for three to four weeks. The president of Barça, Joan Laporta, spoke about this in his appearance before the media, assuring that "we always try not to overload them. With Lamine Yamal (the RFEF and Denia) they understood that after the Eurocup he could not go to the Games and they accepted it. When we received the news about Fermín, we were angry but you end up understanding it."

Now, after knowing the extent of his injury and the opinion of the club, Fermín has come forward and published a message through his social networks. In a publication on his Instagram account, the Barça player wrote a phrase in English that says: "There are falls that will make you fly." Some encouraging words in the midst of his stumble, accompanied by a black and white photo in which he looks like a shadow.

Another Barça player takes his place in the squad

Despite having a heavy match load, the midfielder wanted to be part of the squad led by Santi Denia for the matches against Scotland and Hungary, and unfortunately his physical condition has played a trick on him. Now, with his injury, it will be Pablo Torre who takes his place in the Spanish squad. The Cantabrian had a leading role under Hansi Flick in the preseason, but in the first four league games he has hardly had any opportunities. Therefore, the matches for La Rojita are presented as a good opportunity for the player to show that he has what it takes to count on more minutes from the German.
