Quique Setien offered a pretty worrying update on Samuel Umtiti’s fitness after Barcelona’s 1-0 win over Real Valladolid on Saturday.
The defender has been ruled out after suffering more knee trouble, and Setien admitted there is still no timeline for his return to action.
“He is in an acute process with his problem,” he said. “Not even the doctors know how long he will be out.”
Setien’s comments suggest Umtiti’s La Liga season is definitely over, while he may also miss the return of the Champions League in August too.
