🚑 Pedri sidelined for a month, Barça confirm his hamstring injury | OneFootball

FC Barcelona has issued an official statement this Thursday confirming the worst fears after the European match.

Medical tests carried out on Pedri have revealed a muscle injury in the biceps femoris of his right leg, suffered during the recent match against Slavia Prague.

According to the club’s medical staff, the estimated recovery time will be one month. This news is a significant setback for Hansi Flick’s plans, as he loses one of his creative pillars in midfield at a decisive stage of the season.

The Canary Islander was forced to leave the pitch after feeling a sharp pain in the back of his thigh. Although the player tried to continue, the sensations were not good and the final diagnosis confirms that he will have to spend time in the gym and undergo physiotherapy before returning to the pitch.

During this absence, Pedri will miss key fixtures both in LaLiga and in other competitions. The coaching staff is already working on finding alternatives in midfield to cover for a player who is crucial to Barcelona’s playmaking.

The club’s goal is for the midfielder to be available for the final stretch of February, as long as his recovery progresses well. For now, the instruction is to exercise absolute caution to avoid any kind of relapse in an area that has already caused him problems in the past.
