“he condition is…..” Terrible Frankie De Jong injury News has just been announced this morning as Barcelona coach Xavi offers worrying update about Star mentions he could be out for over 8 weeks
Barcelona suffered a heartbreaking loss to Real Madrid on Sunday night, losing 3-2 at the Santiago Bernabeu in the middle of controversy over controversial decisions made by the match official.
Crucial midfielder Frenkie de Jong’s injury compounded their problems.
Just before halftime, the Dutchman was involved in a battle with Federico Valverde when he injured his ankle. He had to leave the field on a stretcher, looking obviously upset.
Early evaluations of De Jong’s injuries were dismal, leading to fears that his season would end before it should.
According to those with direct knowledge of the matter, De Jong’s most recent ankle setback may certainly be the end of his campaign.
This setback follows a prior ankle ailment he sustained in March that kept him out of action for more than a month.
Even though further exams and scans are scheduled for today to determine the full degree of the damage, preliminary findings indicate that De Jong may miss at least one month of action.
Given the time of the injury and the season’s remaining games, it’s possible that De Jong won’t play again until the very last gameweek.
Given the uncertainties surrounding his future at Barcelona, De Jong’s season may come to an end with his appearance at the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday.
It will take time to determine if this appearance is his last wearing the Barcelona colors amidst whispers of a possible summer exit.
