Lamine Yamal ‘practically ruled out’ of Barcelona’s clash with Celta

Barcelona manager Hansi Flick looks set to have to cope without Lamine Yamal when the team return to action on Saturday against Celta.

Yamal was ruled out for a couple of weeks at the start of the international break with an ankle sprain, although it had been thought he could make the squad for the trip to Balaidos.
