Several outlets are talking about how long the winger may be sidelined for and how that reflects on his loan from Barcelona.

Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi already confirmed that Fati is set to be sidelined for a while, and Barcelona are said to be ‘vigilant’ to the situation.The La Liga giants were ‘hopeful’ that the winger would have a fine evolution at Brighton to make a comeback at the Camp Nou, and this muscle issue is believed to have happened at a stage where he was having his best form with the Seagulls.

It also brings back memories from his injury issues at Barcelona.

Since joining Brighton last summer, Fati has four goals and one assist in 14 appearances. There’ll now be many eyes on his recovery and whether it’s possible he’ll find his good form again before he returns to Spain at the end of the season.
