Tests carried out on Thursday have revealed that Sergi Roberto has suffered an injury to his right thigh. His availability will be determined by his recovery time”, the message read that was published on the club’s official Twitter account.

After the recovery from this physical problem, the team out is usually between 4 and 6 weeks. If he has to get an operation, this period will be extended, while, if it turns out to be nothing serious, he may be back in Ronald Koeman’s plans sooner.

This puts Sergiño Dest in the starting line-up. The ex-Ajax player, in fact, was the one who came on in the Copa del Rye when Sergi Roberto asked to be subbed through injury. Everything seems to indicate that he will be the new owner of the Barca RWB spot.
