The Spanish star Danny Olmo, Barcelona player, was hit by muscle strain in the right leg, which led to his absence from the team's recent matches, including Benfica and Atalanta confrontations in the Champions League, as well as the Valencia match in the Spanish League.

Olmo was injured before Barcelona's confrontation against Benfica in the Champions League, and since then he has not participated in any match, and reliable Spanish journalist Javi Miguel, through his account on the "X" platform, confirmed that the player has not returned to group training yet due to injury.

Miguel pointed out that Olmo's participation in the upcoming Barcelona match against Deportivo Alaves on Sunday seems very complicated and the match is scheduled to be held at the Luis Companis Olympic Stadium at three in the afternoon Cairo time, in the 22nd round of the Spanish League.

This absence comes at a time when Barcelona occupies the third place in the Spanish league table with 42 points, 7 points behind leaders Real Madrid, and the Catalan team seeks to reduce the difference with competitors in the race for the league title.

As Olmo's absence continues, Barcelona is forced to rely on other options in the midfield, especially with the great pressure to win the upcoming matches, and the team coach remains keen on the player's return as soon as possible to enhance the team's chances in local and European competitions.

The absence of Olmo is a new challenge for Barcelona, ​​which seeks to maintain its balance this season despite the injuries and severe competition.
