Spanish media confirmed that Pedri Gonzalez is not suffering from a serious injury as expected, and that his recovery period will not exceed 6 weeks.
Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez announced after the Athletic Bilbao match that Pedri’s injury appears serious and he may be out of action for a long time.
After the tests that Pedri underwent recently, it was confirmed that he does not need to undergo surgery, and fortunately for him, the injury occurred in a different place than the last injury that struck him last November.
According to the AS newspaper, the Spanish star will return next April, and his chances are very high that he will join the El Clásico scheduled to be held on the 21st of the same month.
As for Frenkie de Jong, it is certain that if everything goes well, he will lead Xavi’s squad in El Clásico, as he only needs 4 weeks from now to recover from his injury.
It is noteworthy that Barcelona is already losing the services of Alejandro Balde and Gavi until the end of the season due to injury, and the loss of Pedri and De Jong was another disastrous news, but fortunately the two injuries are within reach.
