This Monday, the French national team released an official statement with some bad news: Bradley Barcola, the 23-year-old Paris Saint-Germain striker who was called up for the October break, is out of action. This is due to an injury that has been going on for some time.
“Bradley Barcola, who has had a chronic right hamstring injury since the Champions League match against Atalanta, is replaced by Florian Thauvin who returns to the Blues 6 years and 3 months after his last selection!”
This is bad and surprising news, which can undoubtedly explain the drop in form noted in Barcola’s performances. We now hope that the break will be enough time for him to rest well and return ready to play. The hoped-for return of the injured players from the last matches should also help him.
