Barcelona has confirmed that Raphinha will be sidelined for at least five weeks, a significant blow to the club’s upcoming schedule. The Brazilian winger will miss the quarterfinal matches against Atletico Madrid, potentially including the semi-finals, and their home league game against the same opponent. Due to this injury, Barcelona will play these crucial matches without Raphinha’s presence.
The Catalan club will also receive compensation of approximately 150,000 euros from FIFPro, a gesture of support for Blaugrana as they navigate a challenging period. This unfortunate injury occurred during a friendly match against a French team, adding to the disappointment. Coach Hansi Flick is reportedly frustrated, as he is without one of Barcelona’s most vital players during this critical phase of the season.
