FC Barcelona's medical department has issued an official update confirming that Eric García and Jules Koundé are sidelined, complicating coach Hansi Flick's tactical plans for the upcoming high-profile fixtures.
Recovery time for Eric García
The centre-back suffered a muscle injury to the rectus femoris in his right thigh. The club's medical team estimates he will be out of action for three to four weeks.
Koundé ruled out against PSG and doubtful for El Clásico
The French full-back, meanwhile, has a sprained left ankle that definitively rules him out of this Tuesday's Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain. His availability for next Sunday's El Clásico against Real Madrid will depend entirely on how his recovery progresses during the week.
