I was completing Raphinha an excellent match against Sevilla. He played right-footed inside, or as Xavi would say in the upper part of the square. And then he wanted to catch an aerial ball served by João Cancelo (d. 35).
But the Brazilian was injured while stretching his right leg. He immediately threw himself onto the grass, aware that his muscles had been torn by the desperation of Xavi who is losing pieces in each game.
The first medical examinations reveal that he could suffer a muscle injury similar to the one he suffered this season Araujo. The Brazilian could be out for at least a month, meaning he would miss the classic against Madrid in Montjuïc scheduled for October 28 (4:15 p.m.).
Without De Jong, without Pedri, without Raphinha
Frenkie de Jong fell against Celta in Montjuïc. Raphinha fell against Sevilla, also in Montjuïc. And Fermín entered, the young Andalusian who already scored a goal against Mallorca (it was 2-2).

Right now, and with two games left before the break (Wednesday, the Champions League in Porto; Sunday, in Granada, with the League), Xavi is running out of players who are essential in his offensive structure.
It already happened with Pedri and now with Raphinha, which gave him a lot of registers, both as a right winger (his natural role) and as a right winger (that position that the coach had found for him in the last week).
