Following the heartbreaking news of Marc Bernal’s season-ending knee injury, Barcelona are taking the necessary steps to ensure the 17-year-old midfielder gets the best help possible on his way back to action. The first step is surgery on the injury, and the date is now set.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Bernal will be operated on Wednesday, September 4 in Barcelona barring any last-second changes if the inflammation isn’t gone until then. Bernal has been walking with crutches since last week, and was seen in the stands during Barça’s win over Valladolid at the weekend.
