Barcelona star Lamine Yamal underwent a special treatment “growth agent” on the ankle
If someone needed to check how crucial it is Yamal plates is for Barcelona, their record of a single win this season without him in the starting line-up is a sure sign that Hansi Flick's team is relying on the 17-year-old. After he was ruled out for the better part of a month, Barcelona is trying to speed up his recovery process.
According to MDBarcelona immobilized the ankle in a boot to help recovery, but also started on a growth factor treatment. The process involves injecting the ankle with plasma rich in platelets to accelerate the regeneration process.
Liverpool will probably be one of Barcelona's opponents in the pre-season tour that will take place in Asia. @jaumemarcet

Lamine Yamal was diagnosed with an ankle sprain following Barcelona's defeat at Leganes and will be out for three to four weeks. Questions have been asked about Barcelona's handling of the injury, with the teenager remaining on the pitch for an hour while clearly injured, and reports that he was pain in the nurse's ankle in the last few weeks anyway.
