Injured Atletico Madrid star to miss season run in | OneFootball

Atletico Madrid midfielder Pablo Barrios will miss the final weeks of the season due to injury.

Los Rojiblancos are playing for pride in their final two games of the 2023/24 campaign after already securing a top four finish.

Another season of UEFA Champions League football will provide a financial boost to the club with the pressure now off.

The Spain U21 international was substituted at half time in Atletico’s midweek win over Getafe which confirmed fourth spot.

Despite being tipped as an outside bet to make Spain’s Euro 2024 panel, his campaign is now over, alongside his chances of a call up.

As per the latest update from Marca, the 20-year-old has suffered a calf muscle injury, and will not be risked this month.

His focus is now be on returning for preseason at the end of June, with Atletico wrapping up the domestic campaign at home to Osasuna this weekend, before a final day trip to Real Sociedad.
