OFFICIAL: Gerard Piqué's serious injury and possible time out

This Saturday, Gerard Hammered could not finish the party that confronted to the FC Barcelona against the Athletic of Madrid in Wanda Metropolitan. When it carried an hour of game, the player rojiblanco Ángel Correa fell to weight on the knee of the Catalan defence, that remained tended in the lawn between gestures of pain and could not continue playing, being substituted and seeding big worry on his physical state.

This Sunday to the midday, the FC Barcelona has given the official medical part on the defender culé after the explorations. "The proofs made this Sunday to Gerard Hammered have showed that has a sprain of degree 3 in the internal lateral ligament and partial injury of the ligament crossed previous of the right knee. It is drop and the evolution will mark availability", prayed the official communiqué.

The FC Barcelona does not have desvelado if it will operate the ligament crossed previous of Gerard Hammered but, anyway, by the type of injury that suffers, his time of drop estimated could be from among three and five months. The most pessimistic times would give if finally there is this intervention that still has not announced and that would keep to the Catalan recovering during the greater part of the season.

In this way, the FC Barcelona, that has wished publicly the prompt recovery of the Barcelonan defender, increases his problem of effective in the central axis of his defence. Without Gerard Hammered and with Ronald Araújo and Samuel Umtiti still out of fight, Clément Lenglet remains like the only central healthy and available for Ronald Koeman in the first staff.

Not even with the most optimistic prognoses on the times of recovery of Gerard Hammered will be able to avoid that the Dutch technician have to experience or with footballers of the filial -Santi Bouquets, Óscar Mingueza or Arnau Commas are the best positioned- or keeping to Frenkie of Jong like head office at least, until Ronald Araújo or Samuel Umtiti do not receive the high.
