Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Osasuna

Barcelona injury, suspension list vs. Osasuna

Barcelona will be looking to make it four straight wins in all competitions when they continue their La Liga campaign away to Osasuna on Saturday night.

The Catalan giants have been victorious in their last two in Spain's top flight to rise into second position in the table, five points behind leaders Atletico Madrid.

Ronald Koeman's side also booked their spot in the final of the Copa del Rey final on Wednesday night courtesy of a 3-0 win over Sevilla in the second leg of their last-four contest at Camp Nou.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Barca's injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Osasuna, who are currently 12th in the table.


Ansu Fati

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

Barca remain without the services of Ansu Fati due to a knee injury, and it is still unclear when the teenager will be available for selection once again, but he should return before the end of the campaign.


Sergi Roberto

Status: Out Type of injury: Muscle Possible return date: Unknown

Sergi Roberto, who has only played eight times in La Liga this season, is currently on the sidelines with a muscular problem, and the 29-year-old is unlikely to be available until the middle of March.


Philippe Coutinho

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

Philippe Coutinho was forced to undergo knee surgery to treat the problem that he picked up against Eibar at the end of December, and the Brazil international is expected to be out for at least the next month.


Ronald Araujo

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Unknown Possible return date: March 6 (vs. Osasuna)

Ronald Araujo made his return from an ankle injury as a substitute against Sevilla last weekend but could not finish the match after picking up an unspecified issue. The extent of the damage is not clear at this stage, but he is again a doubt for this game, having missed out against Sevilla in the Copa del Rey on Wednesday.


Miralem Pjanic

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Ankle Possible return date: March 6 (vs. Osasuna)

Miralem Pjanic was not involved in Saturday's La Liga clash with Sevilla or Wednesday's Copa del Rey contest due to an ankle injury, and the midfielder remains a doubt for this weekend's contest.

Barca revealed on Thursday that Gerard Pique had picked up a knee injury during the Copa del Rey clash with Sevilla, and it is currently unclear when the experienced defender will be available to return.
