Another Injury for Barça! Flick Can't Believe It and Deco and Laporta Make a Decision

The club announced the news a few minutes ago on its social networks

Just when it seemed that the FC Barcelona infirmary was starting to empty, Flick received confirmation of a new injury. The news has taken everyone by surprise, as the international break hasn't even started yet and the Catalonians already have a new injury. After finding out what happened, Deco and Laporta most likely picked up the phone to talk and make decisions.

The transfer market is just around the corner and, despite the fact that FC Barcelona doesn't want to make any changes, they will have to. Yes, because no matter how many opportunities Flick wants to give, the club must look out for its own interests. In this case, what steps must be taken is very clear .

Deco and Laporta had already planned to make such a move next summer, but Flick cancelled the operation at the last minute. Now, however, after this new injury, his departure in January seems more than likely.

Flick Didn't Expect It

Gavi and Frenkie de Jong are now 100% fit and have been able to play for a few moments. Ronald Araújo, meanwhile, is facing the final stretch and is expected to be available after the break. On the other hand, Christensen was the only one who still needed medical services, until now.

The thing is, a little while ago, FC Barcelona announced that Ansu Fati is injured again. Number 10 had just returned from plantar fasciitis that prevented him from playing in pre-season and now he is back on the sidelines.

According to the club, Ansu Fati has "a muscle injury in the femoral biceps of his right thigh." A new setback for number 10, who still doesn't know when he'll be available again.

Deco and Laporta Do

For Deco and Laporta, Ansu Fati's injury is no surprise. They spent the whole summer trying to find a way out so that he could regain his confidence away from Camp Nou. Flick stopped his departure in the end, however. The German was confident that Ansu wouldn't suffer any more injuries. He was hoping he would be able to show his full potential, but that hasn't been the case.

That's why, barring a surprise, Deco and Laporta will put pressure on Ansu Fati to leave in January . Barça still need 50 million to sign Dani Olmo, so Ansu's departure is almost necessary. We'll see what happens, but the blow for the '10' and for Flick has been tough.
