Bar\u00e7a has confirmed that Ferran Torres will be out for matchday 9 of LaLiga against Girona. The ‘Shark’ returned from international duty with Spain with discomfort in his left leg that he has not yet fully overcome<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

Ferran Torres<\/strong> will not be able to play in the FC Barcelona-Girona<\/a> match corresponding to matchday 9 of LaLiga EA Sports 2025\/26<\/a>. The club ruled out the ‘Shark’ “as a precaution<\/strong>” due to the muscle overload that also kept him out of the Spain-Bulgaria match last Tuesday in Valladolid.<\/p>

According to the official medical report from Bar\u00e7a, Ferran is suffering from “discomfort derived from an overload in the hamstring muscles of his left leg that he suffered during the international break<\/strong>.” The forward trained with the squad on Thursday and Friday, but had to complete the sessions in the gym due to pain in the area.<\/p>

Therefore, understanding that ‘7’ is not physically well, the coaching staff has preferred to give him rest this weekend. Torres is, with 5 goals in 10 matches, the team’s top scorer<\/strong> at the start of the season, followed by Robert Lewandowski<\/a> (4). Both will be out on matchday 9 of La Liga.<\/p>

When will Ferran Torres play for Bar\u00e7a again?<\/h2>

As it is only an overload and not a muscle injury, Ferran should be available for the match next Tuesday the 21st, against Olympiacos in Montju\u00efc<\/a> (18:45 CEST). The ‘Shark’ started in 7 of the first 8 matchdays of La Liga and has played minutes in all of Bar\u00e7a’s matches in the 25\/26 season.<\/p>

In the Champions League, he also started against PSG (he scored the only Bar\u00e7a goal<\/a>) and should reappear in the starting XI against the Greek team. This, provided he completely overcomes his discomfort in his left thigh.<\/p>

Last season, the player from Foios missed 8 matches (5 in La Liga, 3 in the Champions League) due to an injury to his right femoral biceps<\/a>. In addition, he was out in the final stretch of the season due to appendicitis.<\/p>

Barcelona’s Forward Line, ‘Struggling’ Ahead of Girona Match<\/h2>

With Lewandowski KO’d, Raphinha<\/a> fighting to return in time for the Cl\u00e1sico, and Lamine Yamal<\/a> coddled due to pubalgia, Bar\u00e7a cannot afford to add another casualty in attack. Especially considering that Dani Olmo<\/a> will also be out for 2 or 3 weeks and Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez<\/a> is just returning after a month in dry dock.<\/p>

Barcelona will arrive at the match against Girona with 7 absentees due to physical problems, one week before the visit to Real Madrid for La Liga<\/strong> and with at least 5 confirmed absences for the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u (Gavi, Ter Stegen, Joan Garc\u00eda, ‘Lewy’ and Olmo).<\/p>

With Ferran Torres, Raphinha, and Robert out, Hansi Flick will have to rely on Marcus Rashford<\/a> as a ‘9’ and Roony Bardghji alongside ‘Dro’ Fern\u00e1ndez<\/strong> from the start. Other youth players, like Toni Fern\u00e1ndez<\/strong>, will probably get minutes on Saturday.<\/p>
