Report – The special treatment Barcelona talisman is following to recover in time for Super Cup | OneFootball

Barcelona forward Lamine Yamal, who has been making waves with his impressive performances this season, is now facing a significant setback due to an injury.

It must be noted that the 17-year-old talent sustained a grade 1 injury to his anterior intertibiofibular ligament during a match against Leganes, leaving him sidelined for the next few weeks.

According to recent reports from Mundo Deportivo, the Barcelona star is receiving platelet-rich plasma treatment to help accelerate his recovery.

This treatment involves using growth factors to stimulate the healing process in the injured area. Additionally, the young forward is wearing a special boot designed to immobilize and protect his ankle during this period.

A major loss for Barcelona

This fixture is not only important for maintaining momentum in La Liga but could also prove pivotal for the club’s aspirations to secure the championship.

Losing one of their brightest young stars at such a crucial time is undoubtedly a blow, but the club is already working to ensure that Yamal will be ready to fight for the first piece of silverware available this season – the Spanish Super Cup.

The Spanish Super Cup will take place from January 8 to 12 in Saudi Arabia, and Barcelona’s medical team is optimistic that Yamal will recover in time to participate.

With a predicted recovery timeline of 3 to 4 weeks, there is hope that the young forward will be fit for the semi-final against Athletic Bilbao on January 8.

The treatment he is undergoing is aimed at speeding up his recovery, and the club is fully committed to ensuring his readiness for the Super Cup.

As he works hard to recover, Barcelona remain hopeful to see him back in action as soon as possible, helping the team pursue important honours this season.
