Barcelona Await Injury Assessment on Fermín López After Late Groin Blow

Medical tests will determine the extent of a left‑groin problem that local reports fear could sideline him for weeks.

Overview

  • López grabbed his left groin in stoppage time of Barcelona’s 3-0 win at Getafe and left the field in visible discomfort.
  • Coach Hansi Flick said the midfielder will undergo scans on Monday, adding, "He’ll have tests tomorrow and we’ll see."
  • SPORT, as relayed in subsequent reporting, describes a pessimistic outlook of a left adductor issue that could keep him out for several weeks, though no official timeline has been provided.
  • Depending on the test results, coverage suggests he could miss the October 1 Champions League trip to Paris Saint‑Germain and be a doubt for El Clásico later in October.
  • Flick is known for a cautious approach to player recoveries, which could influence the return timetable if the injury is confirmed.
