FC Barcelona: injury update on Raphinha with Brazil
The first update has arrived on Raphinha from the FC Barcelona camp.
Since Tuesday afternoon, FC Barcelona have been holding their breath over Raphinha (29, 8 matches and 14 goals in all competitions this season). The Brazil international had made an exceptional start to the season but was substituted at half-time during Brazil's 4-2 win over Australia yesterday.
FC Barcelona and their supporters can breathe a sigh of relief. According to the forward's entourage, cited by RAC1, his muscle discomfort is very slight. It is therefore just a warning for the former Rennes player, who preferred not to take any risks.
