FC Barcelona faces a crucial week in the Champions League with significant absences in their attacking front. Ferran Torres will not be part of the squad traveling to the Czech Republic to face Slavia Prague. According to various sports media, the Valencian forward is experiencing discomfort in his hamstrings, and the coaching staff has decided not to take risks due to the evident danger of a more serious injury.
Ferran's absence adds to that of Lamine Yamal, who will miss the match due to suspension. This situation leaves coach Hansi Flick without his two starting wingers for the first time this season. Additionally, there is uncertainty about Torres's presence in the next league match against Oviedo, as the affected area is the same that kept him off the field last October.

The positive note for the Catalan team is the recovery of Raphinha. The Brazilian, who missed the last match against Real Sociedad due to a severe knock, has returned to training normally and is expected to lead the offense in Prague. Barcelona will officially announce the final squad list this Tuesday before departing.
