The Return is Delayed. Christensen Hits Barcelona's Injury List Again
Hansi Flick barely had time to rejoice at the upcoming return of defender Andreas Christensen to the lineup before it was announced that the much-anticipated comeback is postponed.
Details. According to Flick, the Barcelona center-back has suffered a new injury. The Danish center-back will be absent until the end of the international break for national team matches.
Christensen hasn't played since the first round of La Liga when he came on as a substitute against Valencia. A few days after that match, he underwent surgery to address a troublesome Achilles tendon injury, which resulted in him being sidelined for five months.
It was expected that Christensen would be available for the La Liga match against Real Sociedad this weekend.
Reminder. It was previously reported that Vitor Roque left Betis and is soon to join Palmeiras.
