Nikola Mirotic
suffers from "discomfort" in the Achilles tendon of his left foot.
This has been announced by his club, Barcelona, in an official note in which, however, it does not set a date for his recovery.
The Barça team's statement reports that the player "already played the final stretch of the Endesa League with discomfort and is undergoing recovery treatment that will last in the coming weeks."
For that reason, it is said, he has been "under the control of the medical services" ever since.
The Achilles tendon is one of the most delicate areas for athletes.
A complete break, like the one Real Madrid pivot
Randolph suffered in his day,
requires surgery and a recovery that usually exceeds eight months.
Barcelona's statement was made public after the Serbian chain Telesport, without mentioning breakage, did say that Mirotic suffers an injury that could mean six months off.
