Luka Cindric’s injury last Thursday in the first half against Flensburg it has not been one more blow. The central no longer acted in the second half, with ice on his shoulder sitting on the bench, and although yesterday there was no medical part, the Croatian was intervened on Friday night of the left shoulder as reported by Barça.
The intervention of an acromioclavicular dislocation in the left shoulder by doctors Francesc Soler and Jordi Puigdellívol will have a recovery period of close to two months, with which Ortega will miss the player for the dispute of the second title of the season, the Super Globe to which the Barça team returns, now in Saudi Arabia, in October.
Without Cindric, the only pure center-back is Makuc, so it is foreseeable that Melvyn Richardson, in addition to sharing the right-back position with Dika Mem, and to whom Janc can lend a hand, will also develop in that position, to which Albert Pujol, from Barça B.
Last season Barça had four players in the central position, because in addition to Cindric and Makuc there were also Raúl Enterríos and Palmarsson. Raúl now directs the Barça youth team, and although it does not seem likely that he will even consider the possibility of recovering the Asturian as Ciudad Real did in his day with Talant Dujshebaev, when he shared the position of coach and player.
