At Barça, Marcus Rashford’s return is postponed

FC Barcelona: very bad news for Hansi Flick

In the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals, Barça disappointed on Thursday night. A response is expected tomorrow in La Liga against Girona. But a troubling update concerning Marcus Rashford continues to worry the club.

FC Barcelona must redeem themselves this Monday after the humiliation against Atlético Madrid in the Copa del Rey. Hansi Flick’s men will face Girona, but once again, they’ll have to do without England international Marcus Rashford. Ruled out as a precaution against the Colchoneros due to knee discomfort from a knock, the Englishman—who has been in stellar form for several weeks—will not be available tomorrow.

According to Sport, it appears that his injury is more serious than initially thought. Rashford did not train on the eve of the match and is likely to miss at least the upcoming fixture. A heavy blow for Hansi Flick, who will have to reshape his attacking plans without him.
