The teenage forward is currently sidelined with a knee injury

Barcelona breakout star Ansu Fati is currently sidelined with a knee injury which forced him to miss the win over Getafe at the weekend. The forward is working with maximum intensity to return, just as he did one year and two months ago, in concrete on July 25, 2018. On that day, he was working hard on the mountains of Collserola.

According to the statement released by Barça's medical staff on Friday: "The player Ansu Fati has a problem in his right knee. He's out of the next game (against Getafe) and his evolution will mark his availability moving forward." 

Ansu's absence has been a setback for coach Ernesto Valverde, who is also currently without Lionel Messi and Ousmane Dembele. 

Barça train again on Tuesday afternoon at the Ciudad Deportiva Joan Gamper as they finalise their plans for Tuesday's game at Camp Nou (21.00 horas) against Inter Milan in the group stages of the 2019/20 Champions League. 

Without doubt, everything happening to Ansu now is reward for all these years hard work -- and especially his efforts on that day in july last year in Collserola.
