Barcelona released an update on Lionel Messi after the captain was lost on Sunday to the striker of the club’s next League match against Eibar.
The Catalan giants first announced that the Argentine alien would return to education after the match against Eibar, but have now published additional data on Messi’s absence, through the club’s official website.
The team’s first player, Lionel Messi, is completing the repair of his right ankle and is expected to return to education after the FC Barcelona-SD Eibar match.
The news that Messi is injured will be a serious blow, although that of Barcelona suggests that the challenge is not too serious and that he may be in contention to play Huesca on January 3.
Meanwhile, the Eibar will actually be relieved never to face Messi again. The Argentine alien scored 4 goals in a 5-0 win over the Catalan giants in Eibar’s last game at Camp Nou in La Liga.

Barcelona’s update on Messi, the captain, has recently joined several key players on the disabled list. Defenders Gerard Piqué and Sergi Roberto are offside with teenage striker Ansu Fati.
Ousmane Dembélé has not yet returned from a hamring tendon injury, but is expected to be considered compatible for fit against the Eibar. Technician Ronald Koeman showed that the Frenchman is making good progress at a press conference before the team’s last win at Real Valladolid.
I think it’s a little early [to be at real Valladolid]. Yesterday he did some education with the branch, which is general the day after the match. Want more education sessions to be on the player list You may be part of the Eibar team by the end of December.
Although Koeman does not have several vital players, he has received central defenders Samuel Umtiti and Ronald Araujo back from injury in recent weeks.
Barca started Tuesday’s match after the last 3-0 win over Real Valladolid: Messi on the right track in the win, scoring a record 644 goal for Barca, which allowed him to surpass Pelé’s benchmark for a single club.
Technician Koeman hopes Barca can close 2020 with some other victory over Eibar, a roller coaster year for the Catalan giants who fired Ernesto Valverde in January and his replacement Quique Setien in August.
Koeman came in but had a complicated start in his career as a Barca technician. The Catalan giants are already 8 tracks from the league leader, Atletico Madrid in 2020-2021 and have played one more match than Diego Simeone’s team.
Barca ended last season empty-handed and won’t need to repeat, but he can’t lose any more trouble if he needs to fight for the title. Catalan giants also face a difficult Champions League playoff with Paris Saint-Germain, runners -up last season, in the 16th round.
