'AS' reported it on Thursday morning, and by the afternoon, FC Barcelona confirmed it through a medical statement: Frenkie De Jong is injured.
The Dutch midfielder suffered a tear in the distal biceps of his right leg during the last training session and will not be in the match against Villarreal.
As announced by Barcelona, De Jong will be out for 5 or 6 weeks, which will make him miss the return leg of the Copa del Rey against Atlético de Madrid and in La Liga, the matches against Villarreal, Athletic, or Sevilla.

This tough absence leaves Flick with another significant loss. Just as he starts to recover Pedri, now De Jong will be missing.
To replace him, some fans are already calling for Marc Bernal to step in after showing great form.
