Trouble for Barça: Frenkie de Jong injured

Bad news for Setién's Barcelona after they drew against Sevilla and put the leadership into play. De Jong suffers a soleus injury in his right leg, according to the last medical communiqué.

Barcelona has said that the evolution will mark its availability, since an injury of this type can go from three weeks to more than a month. It also has a high percentage of relapse, which is why the affected zone must be recovered with quality and patience. 

The Dutch player could be saying goodbye to almost half of the remaining season at best and his presence in the final sprint for the title is still in the air.

De Jong already missed the duel with Sevilla due to an muscle overload in his falf, which is why this new injury has been found due to the follow-up of the footballer.

The Dutchman has only missed three games so far, including the Sanchez-Pizjuan game, and it will be a steep drop for Quique Setien's team.
