Barcelona teenager Lamine Yamal has opened up on his current ankle injury that has forced him back onto the sidelines.

The teenager has been ruled out for several weeks with the problem but is expected back early in January.

It's the second ankle injury he has sustained this season, but Yamal has played down fears it's a recurrent problem.

"I am in a recovery process from which I will return better and with more desire," he told Barca One.

"It wasn't a problem with the other injury, it was just bad luck. It was a blow to my ankle, these things happen.
