Dembélé is injured again and will be out for three more weeks

Ousmane Dembélé does not lift his head. When it seemed that the player began to show symptoms of recovery, after reappearing and playing a good thirty minutes against Dinamo in Kiev, the club made an official statement explained that he ended up resentful of the effort by suffering an “elongation in the semimembranous muscle of the leg left”. As usual in these cases, the club did not advance any forecast, but in AS we have been able to know that the approximate time of withdrawal will be three to four weeks.

The truth is that you could not have more bad luck, since he had a promising return with thirty minutes of quality, but from the player’s environment they justify that Ousmane had to play more minutes than expected, since he had agreed with Sergi Barjuan to play 10 minutes and finally they ended up being thirty, with the added problem that he had not played for more than four months. This overexertion ended up paying for him and in the worst possible way: with a muscle injury that will take him off the pitch for several weeks.

In addition to Dembélé, Barcelona announced the loss of Sergiño Dest due to low back pain. In principle, it is not expected that it is a major injury, although its presence on Saturday in Vigo is already ruled out. It must be remembered that the American already jumped from the starting eleven against Dinamo due to some inconvenience.
