This Saturday, May 8, Barcelona will play a key duel for its claims to win the La Liga title, when it receives the leader Atlético of Madrid at the Camp Nou, for matchday 35. The match will have vital relevance in the definition of the tournament, since Diego Simeone's team is the leader and Ronald Koeman's team is second. And the Dutch coach could lose one of his key players to his scheme, such as the American defender Sergiño Dest.

The Spanish newspaper AS, ensures that the right back has been dragging complications in his right leg for several weeks, as a result of the discomfort in the quadriceps that he suffered at the beginning of the season, which have been intensifying since the final of the Copa del Rey.

In fact, the publication points out that Dest's pain "has been subsiding, so in principle he will no longer need to infiltrate for the game against Atlético of Madrid on Saturday at the Camp Nou, although the doctors do not rule out subjecting him to a new infiltration in the event that the player does not have them all with him".

In any case, the participation of the American in the final of the Spanish league is not confirmed, since he disputes the position with the youth squad Sergi Roberto, although in the opinion of the Dutch coach Ronald Koeman, the option of being in the starting eleven is inclined by the one born in Almere.

Although Barcelona has had to do without a couple of Dest encounters, due to these annoyances in his right leg, the specific thing is that they will wait until the last training session, this Friday, to confirm their presence in the stellar eleventh that they will seek to surpass in the Classification to Atleti.
