The injuries are part of the football and, in a lot of occasions, unavoidable. It is the hardest face of the sport and are few those that attain to escape, for saying any. It is a reality assumed, but the true is that it goes in at stake the level of exhibition of the players: between more parties, more wear and less rest, the risk is greater. In the FC Barcelona know it very well and are forced to learn by the 'bad'.

The injury of Gavi, the one who has said goodbye to the season by a complete break of the ligament crossed previous of the right knee and an injury associated to the external meniscus, has given dump to the plan of the Catalans and signed a worrisome coincidence between the players more jovenes, although the case of the Andalusian is the most worrisome and hard by the time that will have to be in the infirmary.

From 'SPORT' have remembered the pattern that is repeating with the youngest footballers that appear in the Barça, already was through The Masia or his signings being young promises. With Ansu Fati, Pedri González, Ronald Araújo, Gavi, Lamine Yamal and Balde has repeated a history: they stand out in the first team, begins the rain of praises "summons them the selection of immediate form and go in of hit to the wheel of the professional world". The speed with which live the change is the worrisome factor.

The precedent that concern to the Barça

Already there are too many precedents. Pedri, for example, happened to contest 35 parties with The Palms to live 72 parties in his first season in the elite between the Barça and Spain (the absolute and Sub-21). Since, it has gone chaining muscular injuries all the seasons, with the fortune that it has not seen forced to go through the operating theatre. It is a case that asemeja to the of an Ansu Fati that, after his jump from the juvenile, happened of zero to one hundred in the City Condal and with 'The Red'. The injuries and physical ailments no him desampararon during a few years.

It is not a case 'minor' the one of Ronald Araújo, the one who has suffered fourteen injuries since it does life in the first team, but that never has gone down the rhythm because it is an indisputable player so much in the Barça as in the selection of Uruguay. In September of 2022 saw forced to go through the operating theatre by an avulsión of the sinew of the aductor long of the right thigh that forced him to lose the World-wide of Qatar 2022 and remain in the infirmary between September and January. It is a player that has suffered too many physical setbacks in very little time... And that also has to serve of example for the management of the Barça with Alejandro Balde and Lamine Yamal. They have to 'close' the cycle.
