FC Barcelona<\/strong> could have a new injury casualty for matchday 11 of LaLiga, against Elche<\/a>. According to ‘RAC1’, Andreas Christensen<\/strong> has suffered an injury to the soleus of his right leg<\/strong>, which makes him doubtful for Sunday’s match in Montju\u00efc (18:30 CEST).<\/p>

The Dane was ruled out of the Champions League match against Olympiacos<\/strong> due to a viral condition that led to gastroenteritis. Although the defender completed the two training sessions prior to the Cl\u00e1sico against Real Madrid<\/strong>, he was ultimately not included in Hansi Flick’s squad list<\/a> for the visit to the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u.<\/p>

The player from Lillerod failed to fully recover from his stomach issues and missed his second consecutive game. In that sense, everything indicates that his absence on matchday 10 of the League had to do with problems in his right leg<\/strong>, which have led to a muscular injury.<\/p>

How many games would Andreas Christensen miss with Bar\u00e7a?<\/h2>

If the injury to his right soleus is confirmed, Christensen could be out of action for 2 to 3 weeks<\/strong>. Dani Olmo<\/a> returned from international duty with Spain with the same issue, and 2 weeks after his absence was confirmed, there is still no definite date for the return of the player from Terrassa.<\/p>

Unlike Robert Lewandowski<\/a>, Olmo is not yet training with the group and, while his return against Elche is not ruled out, there is also no certainty about his physical condition after the Cl\u00e1sico. The ’20’ was one of the 7 injury absences against Real Madrid<\/strong>, along with Andreas himself.<\/p>

The Dane, for the moment, has 9 appearances (3 as a starter) with Flick’s team this season<\/strong>. The 338 minutes he has played so far already exceed his playing time the previous year, when an Achilles tendon operation kept him out for almost 8 months. The ’15’ only played 259 minutes spread over 6 matches.<\/p>

This summer, however, the 29-year-old was able to complete the preseason without any issues<\/strong>, and in the first two breaks of the 25\/26 season, he played 4 games with his national team, performing at a good level. Flick considers him an important player as a substitute, but muscle problems continue to undermine his performance.<\/p>
