Barcelona midfielder Dani Olmo is set to spend several weeks out of action after sustaining a left calf muscle injury while on international duty with Spain. According to reports from Mundo Deportivo, initial scans have confirmed the injury, and the player is expected to undergo further medical tests in Barcelona to determine the full extent of the damage.
Olmo was forced to withdraw from Spain’s training camp ahead of their upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Georgia and Bulgaria. His absence is a significant blow for both club and country, as he has been in strong form this season, playing a key role in Barcelona’s attacking midfield. The Spanish international has returned to Barcelona for specialized treatment and recovery.
Early estimates suggest Olmo could be sidelined for between three and four weeks, though the exact recovery timeline will depend on results from additional medical examinations. Barcelona’s medical team is closely monitoring the situation, hoping to avoid any complications that might prolong his time away from the pitch.
The injury comes at a crucial point in the season, with Barcelona preparing for important fixtures in both La Liga and the UEFA Champions League. Club officials are reportedly frustrated by the timing of the setback but remain optimistic that Olmo will make a swift recovery. An official update from Barcelona is expected in the coming days.
