Barcelona Captain De Jong Out for Month

Barcelona captain Frenkie de Jong suffered a hamstring injury during training and will be sidelined for at least one month, potentially missing up to seven matches across all competitions.

The Netherlands international is undergoing tests to confirm the extent of the injury, which could be a muscle tear. De Jong would miss the Copa del Rey semi-final second leg vs Atletico Madrid, the Champions Round of 16 tie, and several La Liga matches. The injury comes as Barcelona had nearly a full squad available for the first time in weeks.
