"Barcelona goalkeeper Joan Garcia was spotted limping in the aftermath of Barcelona's win over Real Betis in La Liga on Saturday. The goalkeeper is only just back in action after a spell on the sidelines following knee surgery. However, there are now fears about his fitness after TV cameras showed him limping slightly as he heading to the airport after the game."
"Barcelona will certainly be hoping that Garcia hasn't picked up another injury problem. The goalkeeper has been in great form since returning to action and would really be missed ahead of a busy run of fixtures before the end of the year. The Catalans take on Eintracht Frankfurt next in the Champions League and then face Osasuna and Villarreal before La Liga pauses until 2026."
"Hansi Flick does have Wojciech Szczęsny available to deputise if needed, while Marc-Andre ter Stegen isn't too far away from a return to action following surgery in the summer."
Joan Garcia was seen limping after Barcelona's La Liga win over Real Betis, prompting concerns about his fitness after recent knee surgery. Garcia had only just returned to action following a spell on the sidelines and had been in strong form since his comeback. A potential setback would be untimely given a congested schedule, with Champions League fixtures against Eintracht Frankfurt followed by La Liga matches against Osasuna and Villarreal before the season pause. Hansi Flick can call on Wojciech Szczęsny as deputy, and Marc-Andre ter Stegen is edging closer to a return after summer surgery.
