🚨 BREAKING NEWS: Barcelona Star Frenkie de Jong Suffers Injury on International Duty
Barcelona’s injury woes have worsened after reports from the Netherlands confirmed that Frenkie de Jong has sustained a serious injury during training with the Dutch national team. The midfielder, a key figure for both club and country, is now set to return to Barcelona immediately for medical tests to determine the full extent of the problem.
According to initial reports from the Dutch camp, De Jong experienced discomfort during a high-intensity session on Monday and was quickly withdrawn as a precaution. However, early assessments have raised concerns that the injury could be more severe than first thought. The decision was therefore made for him to fly back to Spain for further examination at Barcelona’s Ciutat Esportiva facilities.
This comes at a crucial time for head coach Hansi Flick, who is already under pressure following back-to-back defeats — one in the Champions League against PSG and another in La Liga versus Sevilla. With Barcelona struggling to find consistency, losing De Jong could be a massive tactical and psychological setback for the team.
De Jong’s ability to control tempo, dictate possession, and link defense with attack has been fundamental to Flick’s system. His absence now leaves a major void in midfield, especially with the squad already battling injuries and inconsistent form.
Sources close to the club have revealed genuine concern that De Jong could be sidelined for several weeks, possibly missing crucial fixtures in both La Liga and the Champions League. Having already struggled with fitness issues earlier this season, another setback would be a huge blow for both the player and Barcelona’s ambitions.
Fans have flooded social media with messages of frustration and worry, fearing that this injury could further derail the team’s season. The club’s medical team is expected to issue an official statement later today once full evaluations are complete.
For Flick, this represents yet another test in what has already been a challenging debut campaign at Camp Nou. If scans confirm the worst, it could mark another devastating chapter in Barcelona’s turbulent season.
