Barcelona forward suffers hamstring injury – set to miss first match of 2025

Barcelona have ended 2024 in poor form, with a run of one win in seven La Liga games that has seen them slip in the standings behind Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid. They will be hoping to start 2025 on a better note, with their first match of the calendar year coming against Barbastro in the Copa del Rey.

Hansi Flick is expected to name a significantly changed line-up for that match, as he and his side will play Athletic Club in the semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup a few days later. One player he won't be able to count on, however, is Ferran Torres.

According to MD, Torres has suffered a hamstring injury in recent days. It is not yet known how serious it is, but it is certain that he cannot play against Barbastro.

Considering this is a hamstring injury, it wouldn't be a surprise if Torres is out for at least the next few weeks. If so, Barcelona would not be able to take him to Saudi Arabia for the Spanish Super Cup.
