Barcelona: Pedri's absence period revealed

FC Barcelona must rethink its short-term strategies. Sidelined during the European clash against Slavia Prague, Pedri underwent tests that revealed a muscle injury, ruling him out for approximately one month, according to Mundo Deportivo.

For Hansi Flick, this absence is another setback in a season already plagued by fitness issues for the Spanish midfielder. The Canary Island native has faced repeated spells on the sidelines, missing several matches in the autumn and dealing with persistent discomfort recently.

This latest setback could see Pedri miss a string of crucial fixtures, with Barça facing a hectic schedule where they must deliver in their final Champions League outing to stay in the race for the top 8, all while managing ongoing absences in La Liga, notably against Villarreal CF.
