FC Barcelona’s Injury Woes deepen: Concerns mount over Lamine Yamal ahead of Napoli showdown

FC Barcelona, already grappling with injuries to key players like Pedri and Frenkie De Jong, faces additional concerns as emerging talent Lamine Yamal is now under scrutiny.

With Pedri sidelined for at least a month and De Jong also unavailable for the upcoming Champions League clash against Napoli, 16-year-old winger Yamal, who made a late appearance against Athletic Bilbao, is dealing with knee discomfort.

The club, led by Xavi and his staff, is carefully managing Yamal’s situation, emphasizing caution and prioritizing the young talent’s well-being.

The extent of Yamal’s involvement in the crucial return leg against Napoli remains uncertain, with Barcelona unwilling to take any risks with their promising prospect.”
