Barcelona forward Ansu Fati will be sidelined for about four months after undergoing knee surgery on Monday, the club said.
The 18-year-old Fati tore the internal meniscus in his left knee in Barcelona’s 5-2 win over Real Betis in the Spanish league on Saturday. He was replaced at halftime after not recovering from a challenge by Aissa Mandi inside the area.
