Barcelona's Balde could undergo surgery

Bad news for Barcelona. After being eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey by Athletic Club, the bad luck continues with the blow to Alejandro Balde, who could undergo surgery.
According to journalist Helena Codnis, this is one of the possibilities for the left-back, who is suffering from a "severe" injury to his biceps femoris. Although it is not the only possibility.
Balde could undergo conservative treatment, which involves a greater physical risk, but it would shorten the recovery time and would save him from undergoing surgery.
Everyone is awaiting the official statement from Barcelona, which will be published in the next few hours. A blow to Xavi Hernandez's future plan as he could see how his No.3 could be sidelined for months.
