Barcelona Overhauls Injury Readaptation After Damning Report Cites Player Grievances

An Athletic investigation led the club to remove Julio Tous’ staff from readaptation duties.

Overview

  • The report tallies 12 first‑team injuries this season at Barcelona compared with eight at the same stage last year.
  • Lamine Yamal complained during the October international break about his pubalgia recovery and requested different club staff for treatment.
  • Alejandro Balde’s September hamstring injury was reported to have occurred after he used gym equipment incorrectly, and he felt he had been wrongly advised.
  • Raphinha’s rehabilitation reportedly suffered setbacks after a heavy training workload, contributing to his absence from El Clásico.
  • Barcelona have reverted to last season’s rehab operations, and the dressing room reportedly welcomed the change.
