Barça is entrusted to another miracle: the goal, in the hands of Luuk

Right now Luuk de Jong is presented as the salvation of all the ills of Barcelona. The Dutch striker, who he has barely played ten minutes since Xavi He is on the bench, heads the list of scorers of the expedition that will travel this afternoon to Pamplona. At first, Dembélé and Abde will accompany the international at the extremes, in a totally revolutionary and unprecedented attack, forced by the innumerable casualties in attack: the last Memphis Depay, which broke against Bayern and will be out for a month.

Apart from the puzzle in attack, Xavi will also have to look for solutions on the sides, since Alba’s loss, together with Dest and Mingueza’s bad game moment, they leave the two lanes orphaned of alternatives, with the only solution for the youth squad, Balde, on the left wing.

The novelty of the list is the presence of the young forward of the subsidiary, Ferran Jutglà, who enters through Ilias, sanctioned.

The truth is Barcelona travels to Pamplona with the rope around their necks: without strikers, 16 points behind the leader and with morale in the ground after his elimination in the Champions League. The number of casualties in the first team can hardly be counted even with both hands: Jordi Alba, Memphis Depay, Sergi Roberto, Pedri, Ansu Fati, Braithwaite, Kun …

To add insult to injury If Sergio Busquets sees a yellow this Sunday he will not be able to play next Saturday against Elche at the Camp Nou.

The complete list for this Sunday’s game against Osasuna in El Sadar (4.15pm) is the following: Ter Stegen, Neto, Piqué, Dest, Lenglet, Mingueza, Eric, Umtiti, Araújo, Sergio Busquets, Frenkie, Riqui Puig, Coutinho, Luuk , Dembélé, Demir, Peña, Gavi, Balde, Jutglà, Abde and Nico.
