Lamine Yamal is out for the match against Real Sociedad due to a bruise he suffered in the match against Red Star. Despite having traveled to San Sebastián, the winger is dropped from the list and will not even be on the bench. “Lamine Yamal received a severe bruise during the match against Red Star. During the last few days he has undergone treatment, but the discomfort persists. “The player is low and his progression will determine his availability,” Barcelona assures in a statement.
At AS we can confirm that The affected area is the right ankle and right now no one dares to make a prediction as to when he will be able to return. Hansi Flick himself already expressed his doubts at the press conference regarding the footballer’s situation, which He had not even participated in Saturday’s session. Now they have been completely endorsed by jumping from the call. “We tried until the end with Lamine. You have to take care of him, he has ankle problems. I don’t know how long he will be out for,” explained the German coach in Movistar LaLiga minutes before the game against Real.
In any case, a scenario opens up in which Barcelona will demand the dismissal of Lamine from the National Team for the matches against Denmark and Switzerland, last commitments of the Nations League for a Spain already classified for the quarterfinals of the competition. The club will send a medical report this Monday to the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) excusing his presence, also providing all kinds of evidence. It cannot be ruled out that Lamine will travel to Madrid to confirm the diagnosis, but Barcelona hopes that this will not be necessary. In the Federation they are pessimistic about their participation in the Nations League matches. For now they will follow the protocol and request these medical reports from Barça, but it is a formality and it is most likely that Lamine will be released for the matches against Denmark and Switzerland. In the last international call, Lamine no longer played the game against Serbia due to discomfort that appeared after the victory against Denmark. He returned to Barcelona early.
The National Team is already classified for the quarterfinals of the competition, which will be played between March 20 and 25, 2025, but The first place in the group has not yet been assured. The second-placed teams in the group stage play first at home and the first-placed teams play the second leg at home, which is a nuance to take into account. The four winners of this round of quarterfinals will be those who compete next summer in the Final Four of the tournament, of which Spain is the current champion. Germany is the other team already qualified for the quarterfinals. The other six will be known after the crossings this November.
