On Sunday, FC Barcelona faced a tough loss against Real Madrid in the Clásico match, with a final score of 1-2. However, the team's loss may be compounded by an injury to midfielder Frenkie de Jong, who suffered a hamstring injury during the warm-up before the match.
According to Sport, published on October 24, 2021, de Jong, who is a crucial player for Ronald Koeman's team, tried to push through the pain to avoid missing the highly anticipated match.
Unfortunately, the injury has worsened, and de Jong is now uncertain to play in Barça's upcoming matches, including the trip to Rayo Vallecano on Wednesday and the reception of Deportivo Alavés on Saturday.
