By means of a communiqué issued in the last hours, the FC Barcelona has confirmed that Ousmane Dembélé suffers a small elongación in the biceps femoral of the left thigh. The club does not offer details on the scope of the injury, and limits to ensure that the evolution will mark the availability of the attacker Frenchman for the next commitment of the first team.
From the club leaves clear, therefore, that Dembélé suffers an injury by very slight that was, and knowingly of the conservative that it is always Ernesto Valverde with this type of situations, everything seems to indicate that it will be complicated to see in action from the minute one to Ousmane Dembélé next Wednesday against the Olympique of Lyon, in the turn of eighth of final of the Champions League.
The 'Txingurri' will not risk with 'Dembouz' unless have the confirmation that it is recovered to the one hundred by one hundred. The technician extremeño will want to avoid risks at all costs, and also a hypothetical injury that can engage the presence of Dembélé in the key weeks of the season, shelving the party against the Lyon.
It was as it was, the next days will mark the availability of Dembélé of face to the crash, and if it is not against the French group, the reality is that in the staff culé exist sufficient alternatives to relieve him with solvency. Philippe Coutinho would be the first of them, and if it follows with his version 'grey' of game, Valverde could bet even by Malcom Filipe.
The Barça, with alternatives to relieve to Dembélé
Malcom, by the way, already knows what is to mark in Champions League this season with the Barcelona, and in a stadium so imponente as it is Giuseppe Meazza. There it annotated, in the last minutes of party, the 1-1 definite to add a very important point in phase of groups, of the same form that also annotated the 1-1 against the Real Madrid in the gone of semifinals of Glass of Rey.
The attacker youngster Brazilian, therefore, could be even an alternative more atractica that Coutinho. And, if no, in the recámara will remain Kevin-Prince Boateng, or the option to populate the room of machines with a midfield player more and leave to Leo Messi and Luis Suárez in the front of attack. The priority is that Dembélé was recovered for the duel of the Wednesday. But, if it is not like this, to the Barça no will turn him off the light.
