Alarm over Gerard Pique knee problem at Barcelona

The defender is taking medical tests after the Catalan derby

LALIGA | Espanyol - Barça (1-1): La brutal entrada de Gerard Moreno a Piqué / | LALIGA
Sport EN

Barcelona defender Gerard Pique is taking tests at the club's training ground on Monday after hurting his knee against Espanyol. He was hit by a tough tackle from Gerard Moreno in the final minutes of the game.

Barcelona are worried he might be out for the coming weeks - with the Chelsea Champions League last 16 first leg around the corner - although they have to wait to see the results of the tests before knowing.

 

What is clear is that he will likely miss the Copa del Rey semi-final second leg against Valencia and with Thomas Vermaelen not yet ready to play, it seems Yerry Mina will make his debut alongside Samuel Umtiti at the back.
