Barcelona release an official update on Lamine Yamal's injury

Barcelona have released a new update as well as confirmation on the extent of the injury of the Spanish international Lamine Yamal.

Upon his return to Barcelona following an injury while on international duty with Spain, Lamine Yamal has been diagnosed with a hamstring strain in a recent update.

Barcelona conducted tests on the 17-year-old forward and confirmed the injury without specifying a recovery timeline. Yamal was seen limping after Spain's UEFA Nations League match against Denmark, causing concern at Barcelona.

Although the exact injury was not disclosed, the club requested his release from the national team due to muscle overload. With the confirmed left hamstring strain, Yamal's availability for Sunday's game against Sevilla is uncertain.

Even if he is deemed fit, Barcelona may choose to be cautious with the forward, considering upcoming matches against Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. The club's statement regarding the injury confirmed, "Tests conducted this morning on Lamine Yamal have revealed a hamstring strain in his left thigh. His return to training will depend on his recovery progress."
