Pablo Barrios picks up minor muscle injury | OneFootball

On the team's rest day following their victory over Betis, Atlético de Madrid has reported on the extent of Pablo Barrios' injury. After being forced off the pitch due to discomfort before the hour mark, alarm bells rang within the Metropolitano squad. The young academy player, who is crucial for Simeone, could not continue and was seen clutching his hamstrings. Finally, after the necessary medical examination, Atlético has announced that Pablo Barrios has suffered a "low-grade muscle injury."

Good news for Simeone, as after the initial scare, he will only be without Pablo Barrios for the next 7-10 days due to this injury. The rojiblanco midfielder will miss the home match against Sevilla, and he will not be rushed back for the UEFA Champions League clash against Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.

After the relevant medical tests confirmed his injury, Pablo Barrios will begin physiotherapy sessions, as well as rehabilitation in the gym. His return to competition will depend on his progress, although everything suggests he could be ready before the break, to face Levante at the Metropolitano.
