Barcelona dealt major injury blow ahead of Man Utd clash as star set for extended absence
Barcelona star Ousmane Dembele will reportedly miss six weeks due to injury, which will rule him out of the Europa League play-off round against Manchester United.
Dembele has been at his best in recent weeks and his recent performances in his 1-0 victory over Real Sociedad in the Copa del Rey have been his best in the Barcelona shirt. Rated one.
He also scored his lone goal in his 1-0 win against Atletico Madrid earlier this month and looked like Barca's most dangerous player that night.
Dembele has been plagued by injury problems in recent seasons, despite being a regular in Xavi's squad this season. He has scored his eight goals in all competitions and is second in Barça's top scorers list behind Robert Lewandowski. But the worrying news for Les Cure was that the France international had to be substituted with a suspected foot injury 25 minutes into Saturday's 1-0 win over Girona.
Initial assessments saw a three- to four-week absence as "optimistic", with Barça facing United in the first leg of his Europa League play-offs on 16 February. , there were concerns that Dembele could miss. .
These concerns seem justified.
Dembele to miss Manchester United clash
According to Spanish journalist Fernando Polo, Dembele will be out for around six weeks and miss two Europa League games against United.
Barcelona will play his seven games in February, which is partly due to a schedule build-up following the World Cup, with three more games now in March. Two more games are scheduled in the final month if we advance to the next stage of the Europa League.
His injury will be a huge blow for Barcelona and a big boost for United. Dembele's outspokenness, machinations and goal-scoring ability will make him an important part of Xavi's side at the Camp in his know, and the Spanish manager will find it difficult to find a replacement for him.
Former Manchester City striker Ferran Torres could step onto the right side of the attack, while Ansu Fati, who has a serious knee injury and is not yet in top form, is another option.
But Rafinha, who has often played opposite Dembele this season, seems most obvious as a stand-in for the French star he knows well from his Premier League days at Leeds.
