Barca travel to Sevilla without Dest, Pjanic and Braithwaite through injury

The problems continue for Ronald Koeman. On Tuesday, the manager had to name his squad for the Sevilla match with three players out: Sergiño Dest, Miralem Pjanic and Martin Braithwaite.

The American, who had returned the week before against Granada, is out due to "right thigh discomfort. He is out and his recovery will determine his availability", the club said in its statement.

For his part, Miralem Pjanic has "left foot discomfort" and Martin Braithwaite has "a strained right adductor". Three absences plus Ronald Araujo, who already got injured against Real Betis.

These four join the already known absences of Gerard Piqué, Philippe Coutinho, Sergi Roberto and Ansu Fati.

B team players Ilaix Modiba, Álex Collado and Konrad de la Fuente enter the squad. Matheus is also there.

Here is the list of 20 players: Ter Stegen, Sergio, Griezmann, Messi, O. Dembélé, Riqui Puig, Neto, Lenglet, Pedri, Trincao, Jordi Alba, Matheus, De Jong, Umtiti, Junior, Iñaki, Mingueza, Ilaix, Collado and Konrad.
