Knee injury for Ansu Fati

Ansu Fati will probably miss the Champions League match with Juventus, as Barcelona confirm he has an internal meniscus tear in his knee.

The 18-year-old forward has been their most effective player so far this season, contributing five goals and four draws in 10 competitive appearances.

“Tests carried out this afternoon have shown that Ansu Fati has an internal meniscus tear in his left knee. The treatment to be followed will be determined in the coming days,” read a statement.
