Barcelona's number 10 Ansu Fati suffered another injury setback.

Barcelona have announced another injury to a first-team player less than 48 hours after the injuries to Lamine Yamal and Robert Lewandowski. 

The player in question is Ansu Fati, who has had a torrid time with injuries in his relatively short career. The Blaugrana announced that the 22-year-old hurt himself in training and will be out until mid-December. 

Another injury for Fati 

Once touted as the inheritor of Messi’s crown at Barcelona and even handed the number 10 jersey, Fati's career has been largely derailed due to injuries. 

He was sent out on loan to Brighton last season to get more quality game time, but the injuries persisted, and when he was fit, he struggled to break into Roberto De Zerbi's side.

Hansi Flick had high hopes for him this season after an impressive preseason, but he suffered a foot injury just before the start of the campaign. 

He has been getting reintegrated back into the side slowly by Flick, but has now suffered another setback, a recurring theme in the last few seasons. 

“Ansu Fati suffered a right hamstring injury at training on Wednesday morning. He will be out for approximately four weeks,” the club announced via their official channels.
