Barcelona learn the extent of Ferran Torres’ hamstring injury | OneFootball

Ferran Torres (24) recently had to come off in the 6th minute of Barcelona’s clash against Alavés with a hamstring injury, and now it looks like it may be worse than initially expected.

As per Cadena SER, the young forward could be facing up to two months on the sidelines, putting him out of action for a crucial set of games for the Catalan side.

Torres is set to miss ties against Sevilla and Real Madrid in the league as well as Bayern Munich in the Champions League. He will also be absent for Spain’s international break fixtures against Denmark and Serbia.

The winger joins a mounting list of injuries in the Barcelona camp, a trend that Hansi Flick will certainly be worrying about, and will be looking to discover the cause of.

The last time the 24-year-old was put out of action was in February of this year, and on that occasion, Torres missed 11 games while stuck on the sidelines.

Barcelona fans hope that a good period of recovery will see the young star return earlier than this two-month estimate, but Barcelona will be left without another one of their promising stars in the meantime.
