Real Madrid joined the show of support for Marc Bernal after the torn ligaments that the midfielder suffered in Vallecas on August 27. Through a letter, the 'White House' showed its respect for the FC Barcelona player
Marc Bernal continues to receive messages of support after the severe injury that will force him to have surgery on his left knee. The last to send a message of encouragement to the FC Barcelona midfielder was Real Madrid, a gesture that the player himself thanked along with his family. "As annoyed as I am, all the shows of support are appreciated," commented the man from Berga after receiving a letter from the 'merengue' team.
Carlo Ancelotti had referred to the Barça youth's injury in the run-up to the duel against Las Palmas. "Injuries at this time of the season are what is most complicated. It is what happens when the calendar is too tight and there is no time to prepare. You must choose between work or vacation. And when these are over, 10- 11 months of work. It's a lot," explained the Italian coach.
Marc Bernal will undergo surgery this week in Barcelona
Bernal will undergo surgery this week after the surgery scheduled for September 4 was rescheduled due to inflammation in his left knee. The surgery will be performed at the Barcelona Hospital, led by Dr. Joan Carles Monllau, the same person who operated on Gavi last year. The midfielder will miss the entire season, but hopes to return next summer completely healthy to fight again for a place in the team.
In the coming months, the Barça board will also take the opportunity to address the renewal of Berga. Due to his age, he was only able to sign for three seasons, until June 2026 and with a termination clause of 20 million euros. However, the contract includes the option to extend it for three more years when the player turns 18 in May 2025. After extending his bond with the club, it is very likely that the value of his clause will also be updated.
