More bad news for Xavi Hernández . Barça has issued a statement to report that Héctor Bellerín has noticed, during training this Tuesday, “some discomfort in the soleus of his left leg” . The Barça club has also explained that the right-back will undergo “more tests tomorrow to find out the exact extent of these discomforts”
Although it will be the results of the medical examinations that will determine the period of absence (if any) of Bellerín , the reality is that the defender is a serious doubt for the visit to RCD Mallorca next Saturday (9:00 p.m.). More setbacks for the culé team in a disastrous national team break. The Barça infirmary has gone from being empty to being occupied by Araujo, Kounde, Frenkie de Jong and Memphis
We will see if Bellerin should also stay away from the pitch for a few days. Should he eventually be dropped, Xavi will have no natural right-back and will have to find solutions in his deep (albeit shrinking) squad
