Dani Olmo, Pedri: duration of absence revealed!

Barça experienced a night of mixed emotions against Atlético Madrid. Shining with his spectacular goal, Dani Olmo immediately sent a wave of concern through Camp Nou as he collapsed, clutching his left shoulder. A telling gesture for a player who had finally returned to top form after several promising weeks. The medical staff quickly called for his substitution, fearing a relapse in an area previously operated on.

According to Sport, the internal diagnosis is alarming: the club considers it "very unlikely" that Olmo will return to action before 2026. Further tests are needed to determine the full extent of the injury, but all signs point to an absence of several months, possibly ruling him out for the entire season. It's a major blow for a player Hansi Flick saw as a key element in his tactical setup.

Still, Flick's words do little to ease the anxiety surrounding Olmo, whose season now hangs by a thread.
