It will be the second important absence of both mediocampistas in this season, something that initiated after the day 2 when the Canarian finished leaving to the infirmary by three months after a muscular injury suffered in a training in August.
Shortly after it fell Of Jong with a problem of ankle, the same that has gone back to lesionarse the past Sunday in Saint Mamés. All these injuries have left to Xavi without two of his headlines during a lot of parties, but is that besides it is necessary to add that in this same line of the team the egarense lost in November to Gavi by a break of ligaments that left him 'KO' by the rest of the season.
A data that shows the complicated that has been the season for the Barça
This translates in that three of the best four mediocampistas of the Barça, adding to Gündogan to this list, only could coincide between August and November in the season, but is that Pedri was not almost available in this time. In fact, the three footballers only could coincide on the field in all the season in this mentioned party of the day 2 front the Cádiz.
That day Xavi Hernández tried 'revolutionise' the XI with a system of three head offices, leaving to Lamine Yamal and Balde very opened by the bands, and playing inside with Gavi, Pedri, Frenkie, Gündogan and Oriol Romeu. 68 minutes, until the exit of Gavi, went the time that the group culé could enjoy of three of his greater 'jugones', since in the day 1, Pedri had left the just field when the Andalusian ingresó.
