Well, here Barcelona shows up its bad moment because of the injuries, it's something sad, because I really would like them to be 100% with everything, so who wins or loses is something decisive for the team, then it would be good that They were with all their arsenal, so that later they will not generate more excuses than because they were not with the owner or with the complete team, it is always good to have that type of evidence when things do not go well in a team, in fact the same Fans are the first to say that the team lost because they were not with their best players but with the bench, I say this because they have told me so.

Barcelona confirm injury blow before huge Europa League clash with Man Utd

Barcelona have confirmed midfielder Sergio Busquets has suffered ankle ligament damage and is a major doubt to face Manchester United in the Europa League.

The veteran midfielder limped out of Sunday’s La Liga victory over Sevilla after just 10 minutes at the Camp Nou. The extent of his injury has now been confirmed as he is set to miss several weeks of first-team action for the Blaugrana.

Barca boss Xavi is already at odds with the club’s plans for replacing Busquets, who is out of contract in June, at the end of the campaign. Barca president Joan Laporta is pushing for the club to sign Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves, as the club supremo shares a close relationship with his agent Jorge Mendes

Did not expect that Sergio Bosquest would be sidelined for several weeks due to an ankle injury and this was pretty bad news for Barcelona. There is only one week left for the match against Manchester United in the Europa League playoffs to start. Something unexpected happened, but it looks like the fans will continue to support Barcelona, considering that the first leg will take place at Camp Nou. At least they still have strong ambitions to win this match even though it's a bit difficult because their opponent Manchester United is also in good form lately.

The impact will not be too big, Frenkie de Jong is likely to play as a central midfielder to replace Sergio Busquets, while Gavi has the potential to appear to reduce the impact of Busquets' absence in the Europa League opener against Manchester United.

Basically, Barcelona is quite ready with the potential midfield options they have this season. The absence of Sergio Busquets will not cause any deep concern for the team because Barcelona has prepared everything carefully before this
