Barcelona defender Jules Kounde suffered a knee strain during their 2-2 draw a Granada.
Koundé is completely ruled out for the Clásico on October 28 against Real Madrid. Although the tests ruled out an injury to the cruciates, they did confirm a sprain in the internal lateral ligament of the left knee, according to the club’s statement, which could leave him out for a minimum of four weeks.
Under this context, it seems impossible for Kounde to recover in time for the match against Real Madrid.
Thus, Koundé, who will not travel with France, joins the list of discards for the El Clasico, which also includes Frenkie de Jong.
Others, like Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski, are currently up in the air, while Pedri could make it if there are no setbacks.
