Barca's Fermin Lopez out for two weeks with calf injury
Fermín López will miss at least four key matches due to a right calf injury, sidelining the 22-year-old after recent clashes, Barcelona said Thursday.
- On Thursday, Barcelona announced Fermín López will be sidelined for two weeks due to a leg injury, the club said in its statement.
- Two days after the 3-0 defeat at Chelsea, the club said Fermín López had a `small injury` in his lower right leg and was substituted after just over an hour following a clash with Oihan Sancet last Saturday.
- Under Hansi Flick, López made 46 appearances last season, mostly as a substitute, and produced four assists across six matches after returning from a late-September injury.
- The sidelining means he will miss 3 La Liga games — Alaves, Atletico Madrid and Real Betis — and is in doubt for the home tie with Eintracht Frankfurt on December 9.
- The absence creates squad-selection uncertainty ahead of crucial fixtures while Barcelona sit second in La Liga, and López had helped Spain national team qualify for the 2026 World Cup under coach Hansi Flick.
