It’s a big blow for Barça. Released on Tuesday night against Eibar (1-1), Philippe Coutinho suffers from the external meniscus of the left knee. While the Catalan press evoked a four-month absence for the Brazilian attacking midfielder, the Blaugrana club communicates today on its player. Coutinho will be operated on this Saturday.
“The Brazilian, injured in the external meniscus of his left knee, will be operated on by Dr Joan Carles Monllau under the supervision of the Club’s medical services. Once this intervention is completed, a new declaration will be provided with information on the result and the approximate rest time ”. This season Coutinho has played a total of 14 games, in which he scored three goals and provided two assists.
