Raphinha Barcelona season risk GFX

Barcelona risk falling apart without injured Raphinha

There were just a few minutes to go in the first half of Brazil's friendly with France last week when Raphinha began to experience what Carlo Ancelotti called "mild discomfort" in his right thigh. However, the mere fact that he failed to re-emerge for the second period at the Gillette Stadium immediately put Barcelona's medical team on red alert and they promptly reached out to the winger, desperately hoping to receive reassurance that he hadn't aggravated an issue that had already sidelined him twice this season.

'I deserve to play more!' - Barca star 'not 100% happy' at the club

Hansi Flick has largely been credited with instilling a positive and disciplined culture within the Barcelona dressing room since his arrival, but the first signs of internal friction are beginning to emerge. The source of the discord is Roony Bardghji, the highly-rated winger who secured a high-profile move to the Spotify Camp Nou last summer but has struggled to cement a regular place in the starting XI.

Yamal spotted erupting over 'crazy' Flick substitution call

Barcelona maintained their four-point lead at the summit of La Liga with a gritty 1-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano, but the match was partially overshadowed by a moment of apparent friction between Lamine Yamal and Hansi Flick. Yamal was visibly angry after being withdrawn in the closing stages of the game at the Spotify Camp Nou. This rare show of dissent from the 18-year-old has sparked immediate debate regarding the dynamic between the manager and his star pupil.
