Raphinha sidelined for five weeks due to injury

First-team player Rafael Dias 'Raphinha' has suffered a right thigh hamstring injury, according to medical tests conducted by the CBF following the discomfort he noticed during the Brazil-France match, the club's statement reads. If these timelines are confirmed, the player will miss the Champions League quarter-final against Atlético de Madrid and at least five LaLiga EA Sports matches. On September 26, Raphinha had already suffered a similar injury to the same muscle, which forced him to miss nearly two months of competition. The Barcelona forward Raphael Dias 'Raphinha' will be sidelined for five weeks due to a right thigh hamstring injury sustained in the friendly match on Thursday, where Brazil lost 1-2 to France in Foxborough (USA). The Spanish club confirmed this shortly after the Brazilian national team recalled the forward, who returns to Barcelona to begin treatment and recovery.
