Ansu Fati Struck Down By Injury Again As He Misses Out On Barca's USA Tour
Ansu Fati will miss Barcelona's upcoming tour of the USA after suffering a foot injury in training.
Fati has just returned from a disappointing season-long loan deal at Brighton and Hove Albion, where he made 27 appearances in all competitions and scored four goals.
Just like in recent seasons at Barcelona, Fati spent significant time on the sidelines at the AMEX Stadium due to injuries.
He was hoping to force his way into new Barcelona manager Hansi Flick's plans for the upcoming season but has suffered a setback in that quest.
In a statement released on Wednesday, the club said: "In Tuesday's training session, first-team player Ansu Fati suffered a foot injury.
"He will undergo conservative treatment in Barcelona and his return to training will be determined by his recovery time."
Barcelona's pre-season tour of the USA will see them play matches against Manchester City, AC Milan and Real Madrid.
