Barcelona midfielder Dani Olmo is doubtful for the upcoming La Liga Clasico match against Real Madrid after being diagnosed with a calf injury on Monday.
“Olmo has a muscle injury in his left calf, without connective tissue involvement,” Barcelona said in a statement, without specifying his expected recovery time.
Spanish media reported that Olmo could miss around a fortnight, leaving doubts as to whether he will face Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu on October 26.

Olmo was sent home from the Spanish national team camp last week due to the injury.
Barca striker Ferran Torres also left the Spanish camp on Monday due to muscle discomfort.
Torres was diagnosed with «muscle strain without any structural injury,» Spain said, and will miss Tuesday’s 2026 World Cup qualifier against Bulgaria.
