About rain, wet for FC Barcelona. First was the elimination in the Champions League at the hands of PSG. Then came El Clásico and the possibility of maintaining hopes in LaLiga. That didn't happen either because Real Madrid, with a lot of controversy included, won it in injury time, with a goal from Bellingham.
And now, it was confirmed that Frenkie de Jong suffered a grade II sprain in his right ankle, which is why he will not wear the Blaugrana shirt again for the remainder of the 2023/24 season. Luckily for him, his participation in Euro 2024, which will be played in Germany, is not in danger.
Frenkie should be fine to play the two friendlies with his team prior to the first match of the Euro Cup. On June 6 and 10, the Netherlands takes on Canada and Iceland. Then, on the 16th of the same month, the continental tournament begins.
