Barcelona Midfielder Casado Out For Two Months With Knee Injury
About The Author
Barcelona midfielder Marc Casado suffered a partial knee ligament tear in last weekend’s victory at Atletico Madrid and will likely be sidelined for two months, the Spanish Liga leaders said on Tuesday.
Casado withdrew from Spain’s Nations League squad.
The injury forced him off in the 67th minute of Barcelona’s dramatic 4-2 win at Atletico.
“He will be undergoing conservative treatment that means he is likely to be out of action for two months.”
Barcelona are top of La Liga ahead of Real Madrid on goal difference, with Atletico four points further back, and also have a game in hand.
They are still on course for a possible treble.
