Balde has made his full recovery from an injury sustained in January. But the 20-year-old left-back suffered a thigh injury in the first half of Saturday’s trip to Valencia. But was able to continue until being withdrawn after 64 minutes. With Gerard Martin coming on in his place.
The images have left Barcelona fans concerned about Balde’s physical condition. Given his injury history, with the 20-year-old left-back insisting it was just a minor injury.
“It’s just a minor thing, everything is fine,” Balde posted on Instagram explaining his condition.
Balde was projected as a starter last season but the injury changed everything as João Cancelo took over the left-back spot. Cancelo is uncertain to return this season as he is on loan and his parent club, Manchester City, are reportedly unwilling to loan him again. That means Flick will want Balde ready as soon as possible to bolster the team’s fullback options.
