This season, Ousmane Dembele, who was supposed to be in the starting lineup for Barcelona, once again drops out of the squad for a long time.
The Frenchman suffered a hamstring injury in the first official match of the season. The winger played the entire game against Athletic Bilbao, but did not train with the team after the match.
Barcelona confirmed that the player will miss about five weeks of matches.
In the match against Bilbao, Luis Suarez also suffered an injury and will definitely miss the upcoming game against Real Betis.
Lionel Messi is still in rehabilitation, but due to the current situation, he should be back in action next weekend.
The absence of O. Dembele should further accelerate Barcelona's negotiations for Neymar's return.
