Barcelona's young sensation, Lamine Yamal, has unfortunately suffered a setback in his promising career. The 17-year-old prodigy, who had recently returned to action after a brief injury, has been forced to the sidelines once again.
During Barcelona's match against Leganes, Yamal reinjured his ankle following a strong tackle. Despite the pain, he persevered and continued playing until the 75th minute.
Barcelona has confirmed that Yamal will be out for at least three weeks, effectively ending his year. The club has clarified that this is a new injury, unrelated to his previous ankle problem.
Yamal's absence is a significant blow to Barcelona, particularly during the busy holiday period. He will miss crucial matches, including the final league game of the year against Atletico Madrid, the Copa del Rey match against UD Barbastro, and potentially the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia early next year.
However, there's a silver lining. With only one more league match remaining in 2023, Barcelona will have a brief respite before the intense schedule resumes in January.
Let's hope for a speedy recovery for Lamine Yamal and a bright future ahead for this talented young player.
