Overview
- Robert Lewandowski has been diagnosed with a semitendinosus injury in his left thigh, sidelining him for approximately three weeks.
- The injury rules him out of the Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid on April 26 and both legs of the Champions League semi-final against Inter Milan on April 30 and May 6.
- Lewandowski, Barcelona's top scorer with 40 goals this season, has been a pivotal figure in the club's pursuit of a historic quadruple.
- Coach Hansi Flick is adjusting his tactics by utilizing Ferran Torres and experimenting with Dani Olmo in the striker role to compensate for Lewandowski's absence.
- Barcelona, already winners of the Spanish Super Cup, remain in contention for La Liga, the Champions League, and the Copa del Rey, but the injury poses a significant challenge to their ambitions.
