Raphinha to Miss Two Matches for Barcelona Due to Injury

Barcelona will be without Raphinha for their next two matches, as confirmed by coach Hansi Flick. The Brazilian winger will miss the LaLiga game against Getafe and the Champions League match against Galatasaray due to a thigh injury.

The injury occurred while Raphinha was on international duty with Brazil, where he experienced muscle discomfort after scoring a penalty in a match against Australia. Medical examinations revealed a small muscle edema in his right thigh, but no significant tear was found.

Raphinha has been a key player for Barcelona this season, scoring 14 goals in his first eight appearances. In his absence, Gabriel Jesus is expected to start against Getafe, marking his first start since joining the club from Arsenal.
