Dominik Livaković faces uncertain starting role at FC Barcelona
FC Barcelona goalkeeper Dominik Livaković faces uncertainty regarding his starting position following a difficult international period with the Croatian national team. After conceding 14 goals in four Nations League matches, including a 7-0 loss to England, Livaković's status at his club has become a subject of debate.
Initially, reports suggested Livaković might start against Getafe due to the slow recovery of first-choice goalkeeper Joan García from a knee injury. However, recent updates indicate a potential shift in plans. While manager Hansi Flick reportedly spoke with Livaković to offer support after his international performances, there are conflicting reports regarding whether García has returned to full training.
Flick faces a decision on whether to reintegrate García immediately for the upcoming match against Getafe or preserve him for the Champions League fixture against Galatasaray. This development places Livaković's role as a primary option for the upcoming weekend in doubt.
