Positive news may be on the horizon.
During the international break, Barcelona and Netherlands midfielder Frenkie de Jong suffered an injury, which raised some concerns.
Details: Initial reports suggested that he had a minor issue with the external obturator muscle in his right leg, leading to doubts about his availability for next week’s match against Valencia.
However, journalist Alex Pintanel has stated that De Jong is now focused on his recovery and aims to be ready for Barcelona’s opening Champions League group stage match against Newcastle, scheduled for Wednesday, September 17.
Reminder: It was previously mentioned that UEFA might consider making an exception for Barcelona, setting a unique precedent in Champions League history.
Additionally, Barcelona has confirmed that the match will take place at Estadi Johan Cruyff, as the club is currently unable to hold games at Camp Nou.
