After suffering injuries while playing for their respective national teams the previous night, Barcelona raised alarms about the availability of defender Jules Kounde and striker Memphis Depay.
On October 16, the Clasico will be played between Barcelona and Real Madrid.
In France’s victory over Austria in the Nations League, Jules Kounde got an injury to his thigh, and in the Netherlands’ victory over Poland, Depay suffered a similar problem.
Since joining Xavi’s club in the summer from Sevilla, Kounde has established himself as a primary option while playing a variety of positions throughout the back line, including right back and center back.
Although Depay has mostly served as a supporting role, he did score in the team’s last game before the international break, which was a 3-0 victory against Elche.
Frenkie de Jong also left the field against Poland in Warsaw with what seems to be just a small issue and is expected to be OK.
