Ferran Torres forced off injured for Barca against Alaves
The Spain star went off in the opening stages
Barcelona lost Ferran Torres to injury after just a few minutes of Sunday’s La Liga clash with Alaves at Mendizorrotza Stadium.
Ferran was named in the starting XI again by Hansi Flick but picked up an issue and asked to come off after several minutes of the game.
The 24-year-old walked off holding the back of his right leg and was replaced by Eric Garcia.
Early estimates suggest that Torres may be out for around three weeks which means he will miss Spain’s upcoming fixtures over the international break.
Torres has been named in the latest Spain squad alongside team-mates Pedri, Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsi but now looks set to drop out.
The injury will be a blow to Ferran who has been trying to force his way into the starting XI for club and country this season.
Torres has bagged two assists and a goal for Barca this season but seems to look a different player when he features for the Spain national team.
