Barcelona's possible team for injury ridden clash with Real Mallorca

2022, the year of resurrection for Barcelona, starts at Mallorca and Xavi Hernandez has 16 players out, between injury, Covid and suspension. Barcelona are seventh, 18 points behind leaders Real Madrid. 

In attack Barcelona have few options. No Dembele, no Ansu, no Memphis, no Abde, no Ferran Torres. A plague of absences that leave Luuk de Jong, Ilias and Ferran Jutgla as the only possible attack.

The team is likely something like this: Ter Stegen, Araujo, Pique, Eric, Mingueza, Frenkie, Nico and Riqui Puig, behind that front three. Of the 11 fit first team players, six are centre-backs.
