Barcelona having to manage Dani Olmo's minutes due to risk of injuries

Dani Olmo has been in and out of the Barcelona team this season as injuries have disrupted his start to life back at the Camp Nou.

The summer signing has undoubtedly made an impact, scoring six times in 10 appearances in all competitions, but has only managed five starts in total.

Catalunya Radio are reporting that it's a situation that does concern Barca as Hansi Flick is having to manage his minutes carefully due to the risk of muscle injuries.

Indeed it's highlighted how he only managed to play three games in a week once last season with RB Leipzig due to physical issues.

Olmo is expected to feature against Real Mallorca on Tuesday after missing the defeat to Las Palmas at the weekend.

Yet it's not known how often he will be able to feature in a busy run up to Christmas, with Barca also set to face Betis, Dortmund, Leganes and Atletico.

Olmo's injury record isn't a surprise, as he's missed plenty of games throughout his career, and staying fit is once again proving a challenge at Barca.
