Barcelona Rule Out Lamine Yamal for Getafe as Flick Takes Day-by-Day Approach

The club prioritizes having the 18-year-old fully fit for the October 1 Champions League meeting with PSG.

Overview

  • Yamal will miss a third straight match due to ongoing pubic/groin and back discomfort, with daily physiotherapy continuing at the training ground.
  • Hansi Flick said the situation is being managed day by day and emphasized that Yamal needs more time before returning.
  • Club guidance points to a cautious comeback, with optimistic projections suggesting minutes could come in one of the next two La Liga fixtures before PSG.
  • Pau Cubarsi, who took a precautionary knock to his knee at Newcastle, will be an option for Getafe according to Flick.
  • Reports in France indicate PSG’s Ousmane Dembélé suffered a right hamstring injury with an estimated six-week absence, putting his availability for the Barcelona match in serious doubt.
