Barcelona injury, suspension list vs. Olympiacos: Latest on Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, Ferran Torres

Lewandowski, Raphinha updates: Barcelona injury, suspension list vs. Olympiacos

Barcelona will be looking to claim a second successive victory when they play host to Greek giants Olympiacos in Tuesday's Champions League clash.

After losing consecutive games, Hansi Flick's side returned to winning ways in Saturday's Catalan derby against Girona, which saw Ronald Araujo net a stoppage-time winner in a dramatic 2-1 victory.

In regard to their Champions League campaign, the Blaugrana are sitting in 16th spot in the league phase after beating Newcastle United and losing to Paris Saint-Germain in their opening two games. 

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Barcelona's injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Olympiacos, who have taken just one point from their first two league phase matches. 


Ferran Torres

Status: Minor doubt

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: October 21 (vs. Olympiacos)

Ferran withdrew from the Spain squad following the win over Georgia due to a hamstring issue. The forward subsequently sat out Saturday's victory against Girona, but there is hope that he could return for Tuesday's Champions League fixture.


Robert Lewandowski

Status: Out

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: Unknown

Lewandowski is expected to be out of action for around a month after he sustained a hamstring injury in Poland's World Cup qualifying clash against Lithuania. 


Raphinha

Status: Major doubt

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: October 21 (vs. Olympiacos)

Raphinha is making slow progress in his recovery from a hamstring injury and remains a doubt for the midweek fixture. Barcelona will want to avoid taking risks with his fitness, as the Brazilian battles to make himself available for Sunday's Clasico. 


Dani Olmo

Status: Out

Type of injury: Calf

Possible return date: November 2 (vs. Elche)

Olmo picked up a calf injury while on international duty with Spain. After being ruled out for two to three weeks, the attacker will be hoping to return to fitness at the start of November. 


Joan Garcia

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: Unknown

Garcia has missed the last four competitive matches after undergoing a knee operation. The summer signing remains unavailable for selection and is unlikely to return before November. 


Marc-Andre ter Stegen

Status: Out

Type of injury: Back

Possible return date: Unknown

Ter Stegen is continuing his rehabilitation from back surgery, with recent speculation suggesting that he could return to fitness in December or January. 


Gavi

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: Unknown

Gavi is not expected to return until 2026 after he sustained a knee injury in training in August. The midfielder required surgery and is now undergoing a period of recovery, which could last around five months.
