Barcelona triumphed over Real Betis with a score of 3-1 in their latest La Liga match. However, the victory was marred by concerning news surrounding player Fermín López, who sustained an injury during the game.
Details: Medical examinations have confirmed that the Spanish forward has fractured the fifth metatarsal in his right foot. Following this diagnosis, he is scheduled to undergo surgery.
As previously reported, if López’s injury was confirmed, he would likely miss the 2026 World Championship. On a brighter note for La Roja, 18-year-old winger Lamine Yamal is experiencing a recovery that is progressing faster than anticipated.
Further developments: A potential transfer of Inter and Italy defender Alessandro Bastoni to Barcelona seems increasingly unlikely.
