Footage has emerged showing that Ousmane Dembele may have been injured before the match against Getafe even kicked-off.
The French international hobbled off just 28 minutes into Barca's match against Getafe, and the club later released a statement saying he had travelled to Helsinki in Finland to undergo surgery to repair a rupture of the biceps femoris tendon in his left thigh.

The 20-year-old recently joined Barcelona from Borussia Dortmund for a fee of £135.5m, however this injury is set to keep the forward out for up to four months.
There are many explanations as to why Dembele got injured, some are blaming the condition of the pitch, Barca's head coach Ernesto Valverde has blamed the Frenchman's inexperience saying that the movement he made was too quick for the muscle to handle.
