The defeat of FC Barcelona against Real Sociedad (3-1) on Saturday came with additional bad news as central defender Gerard Piqué suffered a thigh injury during the game. FC Barcelona confirmed the extent of his injury, stating that Piqué will be unavailable for approximately 15 days.
As a result, Piqué will miss important La Liga matches against Almeria and Valladolid, as well as a friendly match for the Spanish national team against Italy on March 5.
This injury comes as a blow to FC Barcelona, as Piqué is regarded as one of the best defenders in the Spanish league. His absence will be felt as the team strives to maintain its position in La Liga and prepares for upcoming fixtures.
