This injury comes at a crucial time for “Olmo,” who had recently begun to regain his usual form.
Barcelona hopes that “Olmo” will be able to participate in the Catalan derby against Espanyol, scheduled for next January 3.
But according to the newspaper “Sport,” there is a tendency within Barcelona not to rush “Olmo”‘s return.
Barcelona justifies this decision by saying that “Olmo” had previously suffered a dislocation in the same shoulder in 2023, which required him to be absent for two months after undergoing surgery.
The newspaper explained that “Olmo”‘s absence from the field may extend to four months if he undergoes shoulder surgery, which means he will miss most of the rest of the season.
Barcelona is seeking to avoid this scenario, and therefore is currently relying on rehabilitation treatment.
“Olmo” remains a key player in “Hans Flick”‘s squad, even with the presence of “Fermin Lopez,” as he performed well in the recent matches against Alaves and Atlético Madrid.
