Hupu reported on October 11 that according to many Spanish media including Catalonia Radio, "World Sports" and other news, Barcelona midfielder Olmo was diagnosed with a torn soleus muscle in his left leg after withdrawing from the Spanish national team roster due to injury. He will also be absent for at least 3 weeks.

It is reported that Olmo's condition was mild at first and he did not receive any medical examination. However, he felt seriously unwell during Spain's training session yesterday.

In addition, Olmo also suffered a torn soleus muscle in his left leg due to an accidental collision during training on Friday morning. Medical examination results have confirmed the injury. Further tests will be carried out next Monday, but it currently appears difficult for Olmo to recover in time for El Clasico.

According to Barcelona club sources, there are doubts whether Olmo can participate in the El Clasico, although the club has not ruled out the possibility of his participation. Before facing Real Madrid, Barcelona has two more games scheduled: a league match against Girona and a Champions League match against Olympiacos. The attacking midfielder's recovery will determine whether he can play in these games, but barring a major accident, Olmo is basically considered unable to recover in time.

Catalan Radio stated that Barcelona is very angry with the Spanish Football Association. The club informed them that Olmo was in poor health when he arrived and attached a detailed medical report. They didn't understand how they could ignore something like this.

Olmo will return to Barcelona tomorrow to start rehabilitation treatment. Barcelona’s injury list has added another member, which already included Yamal, Garvey, Fermin, Ter Stegen, Rafinha and Joan Garcia.
