Barcelona hit with more injury woes as striker and goalkeeper are sidelined
Barcelona striker sent to miss key Champions League clash with injury
- Barcelona's injury woes have deepened with forward Raphinha and goalkeeper Joan Garcia added to the growing list of sidelined players.
- Raphinha is anticipated to be out for approximately three weeks due to a hamstring injury.
- Joan Garcia faces a more serious setback, requiring surgery for a ruptured meniscus in his left knee, which could see him sidelined for four to six weeks.
- These new absences compound an already challenging situation, with midfielder Gavi out for up to five months, though Lamine Yamal and Alejandro Balde are expected to return this weekend.
- The club, currently second in LaLiga and unbeaten, faces a crucial Champions League clash against Paris St Germain on Wednesday, with their goalkeeper situation particularly precarious.
