Listed in preliminary squad Roberto (shoulder) is in the preliminary squad list for Saturday's clash with Espanyol.

Impact Roberto returns to the preliminary squad list. The wing-back was expected to return and is reportedly going to play through pain stemming from a long-term shoulder injury. When fit Roberto has seen consistent playing time at right-back.

Playing through pain Roberto is available for Saturday's clash with Espanyol, but is playing through shoulder pain, he announced in an interview with RAC1.

Impact Roberto dislocated his shoulder and actually underwent a minor surgery to try and "clear up" the injury. The wing-back is playing through pain but is able to play during the second half of the season. With his contract winding down and Jules Kounde taking major starting minutes it's unclear how much playing time Roberto will see.

Declared fit Roberto (shoulder) was given medical clearance for Monday's training session.

Impact Roberto has been out since mid-October but now has plenty of time to return by a Dec. 31 derby against Espanyol. Before his injury, Roberto started five times in six games but will usually sit behind Jules Kounde and Hector Bellerin in the depth chart.

Likely out through World Cup Roberto (shoulder) is expected to be out between four and six weeks with an injury suffered in Sunday's 4-0 win over Athletic Club, according to MARCA.

Impact Roberto has yet to receive official word on his status but most reports are pointing in the same direction for how long he's out, which will be through late-November or early-December when the league is on break for the World Cup. He had been playing well at right-back with one goal and one assist in his last four matches but finds himself injured and now for the first time over the last three years. In his absence, Hector Bellerin should be the first choice on the right flank while Jules Kounde and Alex Balde can rotate into that spot if needed.

Scores goal, comes off injured Roberto scored a goal and won three of three tackles in Sunday's 4-0 victory against Athletic Club, but he had to sub out in the 86th minute after dislocating his shoulder.

Impact Roberto will be a doubt for Wednesday's Champions League clash against Barcelona and possibly for next weekend's Valencia game in La Liga as well as he recovers from this dislocated shoulder. Jules Kounde, Alex Balde and Hector Bellerin are all options to replace him at right-back until he's fit again.

Logs assist in draw Roberto logged one assist from two chances created, took three shots (one on goal) and made four interceptions during Wednesday's 3-3 draw with Inter Milan.

Impact Roberto received his second start from the last three games and did well to set up Ousmane Dembele's goal. Aside from that, there was little to be desired defensively in a result that leaves Barca unlikely to make the UCL knockout rounds. Until Jules Kounde or Hector Bellerin returns from their respective injuries, Roberto appears to be the first-choice right-back.

Logs three crosses in loss Roberto logged three inaccurate crosses and made two tackles during Tuesday's 1-0 loss to Inter Milan.

Impact Roberto made his first start since returning from a groin injury and played a big role in possession, completing the most passes of any player on the pitch. While the game didn't turn out as planned, Roberto should get a couple more starts until Jules Kounde and Hector Bellerin return from their muscular injuries.

Xavi not expected to risk Sergi Roberto despite Barcelona right-back crisis Barcelona have multiple injured right-backs but Sergi Roberto may not be risked against Mallorca this weekend.

Available Saturday Roberto made the squad list for Saturday's match against Mallorca.

Impact Roberto will still play after missing three straight games due to a groin issue. Youngster Marc Casado has been brought in to back him up but Roberto figures to start given some of the other absences on the right flank.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Still in question Roberto (groin) is considered questionable heading into Saturday's match against Mallorca, according to manager Xavi via MARCA.

Impact Roberto has missed three straight games and while he could play, his fitness is certainly in question. Youngster Marc Casado could be called up from the second team if a right-back is needed, though a change in system could also protect a weakened part of the pitch due to depth issues. The injuries to Jules Kounde (hamstring), Hector Bellerin (calf) and now Roberto have come at a bad time ahead of a busy stretch before the World Cup.

Won't play Saturday Roberto (groin) didn't make the squad list for Saturday's match against Elche.

Impact Roberto misses a third straight game due to this injury and will hope to use the international break to recover in time for a busy October. While he's out, either Jules Kounde or Hector Bellerin should start at right-back, though Roberto is unlikely to start with much consistency over better summer signings.

Comes off bench in loss Roberto logged six minutes off the bench during Sunday's 4-1 win over Real Sociedad.

Impact Roberto has played off the bench in both of his appearances to open the season. With Sergino Dest getting pushed out of the squad, Roberto is likely to fill in for more opportunities on the right flank or in defensive-midfield, where he's also capable of playing. Neither situation results in a player with much fantasy value.

Impact Roberto missed much of last season with a quad injury he picked up in late October, underwent surgery on in December and then suffered a setback for in April.

Impact Roberto has been with Barcelona since he was 13 years old, and the defender/midfielder (now 30) has just signed on through the 2022/23 campaign. However, a quad injury he suffered in October limited him to just 12 appearances in all competitions last season, and he will want to return at full fitness in order to contribute to the team next year.

Suffers injury setback Roberto (quadriceps) has re-injured himself and is now expected to miss the rest of the season, according to Albert Roge of Sport.

Impact Roberto was close to finally making his return after missing around six months with a quad injury that required surgery in December. The 30-year-old's future with Barcelona is up in the air at the moment as his contract expires in the summer, and his position is not strengthened by the fact that he hasn't played since October.
