Eric García was the victim of a violent collision to the face during an aerial duel last night against Brugge in the Champions League. He was struck on the nose and immediately left the pitch, his face bloodied. As he exited, García told the club's medical staff that he had "broken his nose". Subsequent tests only confirmed his initial feeling.

Back in Barcelona, the medical staff decided to closely monitor the injury's progress to assess the best treatment and recovery options. Wearing a protective mask is being considered—a common solution in such cases—but the specialists are still debating whether to rush his return.
