F\u00fatbol Club Barcelona<\/strong> is once again looking at its infirmary with concern. Just when it seemed that the loss of players could begin to ease, a new alert is triggered a few days before the Cl\u00e1sico against Real Madrid<\/strong>, scheduled for this Sunday, October 26 at 4:15 p.m.<\/a><\/strong> at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u.<\/p> However, Frenkie de Jong<\/strong> has not trained with the group this Thursday due to indisposition, and his presence in the big match is in doubt. The Dutch midfielder, a key player for Hansi Flick<\/strong> in the Bar\u00e7a midfield, had recently returned after an injury.<\/p> This new setback once again jeopardizes his availability. Bar\u00e7a<\/strong> is being cautious, but the possibility that he won’t be ready for the match against Madrid would be a major blow to the German coach’s tactical planning.<\/p> Frenkie de Jong<\/strong> represents balance, judgment, and hierarchy in the Bar\u00e7a midfield. His role is so crucial that Flick<\/strong> does not have a natural replacement with the same profile. If he ultimately cannot play, the coaching staff would be forced to turn to Marc Casad\u00f3<\/strong> as a possible starter at the Bernab\u00e9u, alongside Pedri and Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez<\/strong>. A guaranteed but atypical lineup considering the context and the demands of the match.<\/p> The Dutchman’s absence would add to an injured list<\/a><\/strong> that already includes Ter Stegen, Joan Garc\u00eda, Gavi, Lewandowski, Christensen and Dani Olmo<\/strong>. In addition, Hansi Flick will not be able to sit on the bench due to suspension<\/a><\/strong>, which further aggravates the Bar\u00e7a outlook ahead of the Cl\u00e1sico.<\/p> In recent days, Christensen<\/strong> has also been sidelined due to an intestinal problem. The coincidence with Frenkie de Jong<\/a>‘s<\/strong> indisposition has aroused suspicion within the locker room about a possible viral condition that could be affecting several players. Although the club has not issued any official statement in this regard, they remain attentive to the evolution of both.<\/p> Frenkie de Jong: A noticeable absence in Bar\u00e7a’s engine room<\/h2>
