Lamine Yamal Injury: How Long Will He Be Out?
Barcelona's young star is dealing with an ankle issue that will keep him off the field for several weeks.
Although he traveled with the team, Lamine Yamal ended up being left out of Barcelona's squad for the match against Real Sociedad, watching his team’s defeat from the stands.
On Monday, Barcelona released a medical report on their young star. "Lamine Yamal has a grade 1 injury of the syndesmosis in his right ankle," read the statement posted on social media.
The report also noted that Lamine Yamal will be sidelined for two to three weeks, ruling him out of Spain’s upcoming matches.
Barcelona’s next game isn’t until November 23, when they visit Celta de Vigo in La Liga. It remains to be seen if Yamal will fully recover in time, but his availability for that match is currently uncertain.
