Frenkie de Jong will not play for Barça again this season

Frenkie de Jong will not play for Barça again this season.

Bad news for Barça, bad news for Frenkie de Jong. The medical tests carried out on the Dutchman this afternoon confirm that he is suffering from a grade II sprain in his right ankle, a setback for which he will be away from the pitch for around five weeks. In principle, then, Frenkie will not play for Barça again this season.

This Sunday, just before the break, the Dutchman sprained his right ankle in a duel with Valverde, who was on the ground and went all out in the dispute for the ball. The Barça player was quickly left lying on the turf complaining about his ankle, the same one who was already injured last March. Even in the autumn he was injured for the first time, although the diagnosis was different from last March, when he was in the dry dock for five weeks.

In the medical statement, Barcelona have limited themselves to pointing out that De Jong is suffering from a sprained right ankle. “It’s low and its evolution will determine availability,” added the club. As SPORT has learned, Frenkie will surely miss the games against Valencia, Girona, Real Sociedad, Almeria and Rayo Vallecano. In addition, it is also likely that he will be out of the league season at Sevilla. If Barça have already secured second place, everything indicates that the midfielder will not reappear until next season.

Yes, the former Ajax man should be ready to play the two friendlies with his national team before the first match of the European Championship. On June 6 and 10, the Netherlands take on Canada and Iceland. Then, on the 16th of the same month, the continental tournament starts, an appointment for which Frenkie will be available.
