Barcelona’s midfielder, Dani Olmo, has been governed by the Benfica champions League with a calf injury, the LaLiga club announced on Sunday.
Olmo has scored six and recorded 3 assists in 18 appearances since joining Barca from RB Leipzig.
Barcelona were held by Getafe on Saturday in LaLiga but are well-placed in the Champions League table in second, having won five of their six games.
“Dani Olmo has a right soleus [lower calf muscle] strain. He is out for the next match and his return will be determined by his recovery,” the club said.
The injury comes after Olmo and his summer partner, Pau Victor, were granted transient tickets to play through the country’s most sensible sports court.
Olmo and Victor were originally recorded during the first part of the season and Barcelona then blocked LaLiga and the Spanish Football Federation of the two players for the time of the Crusade so as not to respect the regulations of the monetary exhibition before December 31. .
However, the Club resorted to the Spanish Government, which intervened while the Superior Sports Council revoked the resolution and allowed the club to provisionally sign the players to the final resolution of the Barcelona call.
