Roony Bardghji suffers serious knee injury at FC Barcelona
FC Barcelona winger Roony Bardghji has suffered a serious knee injury during training, which is expected to sideline the 20-year-old Swedish player for six to seven months. Reports indicate that Bardghji has torn his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee, a recurring issue as he previously suffered a similar injury during his time with FC Copenhagen.
The injury occurs at a critical juncture for both the player and the club. Barcelona had been considering a loan move for Bardghji to secure more playing time, with clubs such as Ajax and several Premier League teams showing interest. This medical setback effectively halts any immediate transfer plans for the summer window.
Barcelona manager Hansi Flick had previously communicated to Bardghji and teammate Marc Casadó that they were not central to the upcoming season's plans as the club prioritizes developing talent from La Masia. The club is expected to provide further official updates following complete medical evaluations.
