Achilles tendon trouble for Nikola Mirotic

Montenegrin power forward Nikola Mirotic has a problem with his left Achilles tendon.

The Barça player was already having difficulty towards the end of the last Liga Endesa season, and will be undergoing a recovery programme over the next few weeks.

The FC Barcelona Medical Services have been monitoring the player since the end of the 2021/22 campaign, and he will now be side-lined until the injury has cleared
