Lamine Yamal Likely To Miss Atletico Madrid Showdown

Lamine Yamal is a serious injury doubt for Barcelona’s La Liga game against Atletico Madrid next weekend.

Barcelona’s 1-0 league setback at home to Leganes has hampered their title hopes, with only goal difference separating them from Los Rojiblancos.

He was replaced after 75 minutes amid concerns over his availability to play in Barcelona’s last game of 2024.

According to Mundo Deportivo, he will undergo testing in the next 24 hours to establish the severity of the problem, but the early indicators are concerning.

He is said to have suffered a sprain, but even a minor injury will keep him out and perhaps derail his start to 2025.
