Deadlines, injuries... This is how the very crowded Barça infirmary is

The injuries have condemned to the FC Barcelona in this stretch of the season. To day of today, are nine footballers that keep in the infirmary and that force to Xavi Hernández to 'throw' of the quarry and explore new formulas to work with what has. The forecast is that several players can be recovered in the next four weeks, but everything will depend on the feelings that have in the trainings.

And it is that, although the blaugrana play a lot in LaLiga and go back to the Champions League with a maximum challenge to surpass eighth for the first time from 2020, the medical services and technical body will not risk to the players. They will take action when they are prepared and paulatinamente, as it has happened up to now. The only 'safe' is that so much Gavi like Alejandro Balde will lose the rest of the season. We review, one to one, how are the nine lesionados of the Barça:

Marc-André ter Stegen

The guardameta of Mönchengladbach went through the operating theatre the past 11 December to solve the lumbar problems that suffered in the last announcement with Germany, with which could not play in the stop of selections. Already it has begun to train to the maximum level and could be the big 'signing' for this month of February. It can go in to a list of summoned for the visit of the Granada to the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Compannys, the Sunday 11.

Iñigo Martínez

After a month of drop, the central Basque had returned to the action for the dispute of the dieciseisavos of final of the Glass of the King against the Barbastro. The Barça confirmed that it suffered a muscular injury in the biceps femoral of the left leg. In the last days has been participating in a part of the trainings grupales, but seems prompt so that it can go in to the announcement of the party against the Sportive Alavés. In front of the Granada, expects him with all security.

Raphinha

The Brazilian attacker has been one of the sensitive drops in the line of attack, after falling lesionado against the Osasuna in the semifinals of the Supercopa of Spain, in Saudi Arabia. The Barcelona communicated that it suffered an injury in the biceps femoral of the left thigh, the same that Iñigo and repeating the one who already had suffered in 2023. Xavi Hernández trusts to have it 100% healthy for the visit to the Celtic of 17 February. It will depend, as always, of his feelings.

Sergi Roberto

It did not go in in the announcement of the party in front of the Villarreal by annoyances in the heel of Achilles, but is not a very big problem. Lto forecast is that it can be recovered the next week, to receive to the Granada, or at most to visit to the RC Celtic in Balaídos. In paper, is not a drop that cause a lot of problems because Xavi is betting by Gündogan, Pedri and Of Jong in the medullary, with Fermín López like spare.

Marcos Alonso

At the beginning of January, the left side went through the operating theatre to treat some problems in the back that had dragged from December. To the equal that Marc-André ter Stegen, his time of drop estimated was of two months and half, by what the forecast is that it can be back to beginnings of March, losing like this the next five parties of the Barça (Alavés, Granada, Celtic and Getafe by LaLiga, in addition to the duel of gone of eighth against the Naples).

Joao Félix

The Portuguese fell lesionado in the previous of the visit of the Osasuna. The blaugrana issued a medical part confirming that had a sprain in the external lateral ligament of the right ankle. In the Barça trust that it will be able to recortar terms in his recovery -and esquivar the quebraderos of head that had in the past with alike injuries- and could be back to the action for the gone of the eighth of final of the Champions League, against the Napoli on 21 February.

Ferran Torres

It has been the last in lesionarse in the Barça. Only 'it held' four minutes in the party against the Osasuna, in Montjuïc, after feeling a 'prick' in the thigh of the right leg. The Barça confirmed that it suffers an injury in the biceps femoral of the right leg and will lose , as little, the next whole month of competition. In the most positive prognoses, could be back for the visit to the Athletic Club in Saint Mamés -during the first week of March- by LaLiga.

Alejandro Balde

It fell lesionado in the dispute of the quarter-finals of the Glass of Rey and confirmed that it suffers an injury in the sinew isquiotibial that forced him to go through the operating theatre and that will keep him in the dry dam by the next four months, by what has given by finished his participation in this season. His presence in the Eurocopa and Olympic games, with 'The Red', is in doubt.

Gavi

It has been in the infirmary from the month of November, when it suffered a complete break of the ligament crossed previous of the right knee and an injury associated in the lateral meniscus in a party of Spain against Georgia. It went through the operating theatre and will be drop until the season that comes. It will not participate in the Eurocopa neither Olympic games of this year.
