BarcelonaIn the absence of more medical tests, the first forecasts at Barça are not at all optimistic with Jules Kounde’s hamstring injury. The Frenchman, injured this Tuesday with his selection, could “be out of action for several weeks”, as informed ARA by the sources consulted based on the player’s first scans and sensations. This means that by now the forecast is that he will miss one of the most outstanding matches of this October, the classic against Real Madrid on Sunday 16.
The injury is a headache for Xavi Hernández, since despite the reinforcement of Héctor Bellerín at the last minute, the ex-Sevilla defender was his most reliable right-back. Now between the Catalan defender, Sergi Roberto (who has suffered discomfort lately) and Ronald Araujo will have to occupy this position, when demanding matches for Barça come in a few days, such as the visit to San Siro on Wednesday the 12th to play against Inter Milan and the aforementioned classic against the white team. This afternoon the club will communicate what injury Kounde has.
