The FC Barcelona has not escaped of this situation. Ronald Koeman has seen like varied of his players have fallen lesionados and the situation is more than worrisome. With a so adjusted calendar, are more the parties that can lose the footballers, what comports to that the quality of the team go down.

The good news for Ronald Koeman is that yes it will have Ousmane Dembélé and Sergi Roberto. The French suffered in the visit to the Cádiz an elongación in the isquiotibiales of the right leg and the time of drop was of two or three weeks, by what would have to be available (if there is not any complication), to finals of this year. Sergi, by his part, suffered in front of the Atleti a break of the rectum femoral of the right thigh and will be available, a priori, in January.
