Barcelona's leading scorer Robert Lewandowski sustained a back injury in the match against Real Sociedad, forcing him to miss the Polish national team's upcoming games. However, the medical team believes the injury didn't originate in that specific match.
Details: Polish national team head doctor Jacek Jaroszewski stated that Lewandowski has been dealing with chronic back problems for some time now. The blow he received in the match against Real Sociedad, however, brought these issues to the fore.
Quote: "Robert has problems with his back, particularly the lumbar region. He has been experiencing minor pains in this area for some time. He received a blow to the back from an opponent in the Barcelona game, and everything came to a head. We assessed the injury as requiring a ten-day break. Robert will now undergo individual rehabilitation." Jaroszewski told WP Sportowe Fakty.
