Barcelona lose Raphinha and goalie García to injuries for several weeks

BARCELONA: Barcelona will be without Raphinha and new goalkeeper Joan García for weeks due to injuries. García has started every game since transferring from Espanyol this summer but has hurt the meniscus in his left knee and will require arthroscopic surgery, the defending La Liga champion said on Friday. Barcelona expect García to be sidelined for four to six weeks. Spanish media reports said he was injured while training on Friday. Raphinha will be out for an estimated three weeks after hurting his right hamstring, according to the club. The Brazil forward, who was key to Barcelona winning the league and Copa del Rey last season, appeared to be hurt on Thursday in their 3-1 win at Oviedo. Barcelona visit Real Sociedad in La Liga on Sunday, three days before they host European champion Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League’s second matchday. They visit Real Madrid for the season’s first clasico on Oct.

PSG captain Marquinhos out with thigh injury

PARIS: Club captain Marquinhos has joined the growing list of big-name absentees for Paris Saint-Germain after suffering a thigh issue, the European champions announced on Friday. The 31-year-old Brazilian defender “will undergo treatment on a left thigh injury over the next few weeks,” PSG announced on their website. The latest injury blow for Luis Enrique’s side comes in the wake of injuries to stars Joao Neves and Desire Doue, as well as recent Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembele. PSG did not specify when Marquinhos picked up the injury, with the center-half playing the full 90 minutes of his side’s last outing — a 1-0 defeat at arch-rivals Marseille on Monday in which Marquinhos scored an own goal. When contacted by AFP, PSG did not immediately respond. Bradley Barcola was, however, present at Friday’s training session ahead of PSG’s league meeting with Auxerre this weekend, after having missed the Marseille defeat due to muscle fatigue in his thigh. PSG then next face Barcelona at home in the Champions League on Wednesday, before traveling to Lille in Ligue 1 action on October 5.

Champion Ingebrigtsen labors into 5,000m final

TOKYO: Norway’s double-defending 5,000 meters world champion Jacob Ingebrigtsen and America’s Olympic 1,500m champion Cole Hocker advanced to the final of the 5,000m on Friday where they will hope to make amends for 1,500m frustrations earlier in the week. Ingebrigtsen, who has been battling to get into race shape after an Achilles injury, went out in the heats of the 1,500m, having been beaten in the final in the last two world championships and at last year’s Olympics, but on all three occasions he bounced back to win the 5,000. The Norwegian, who turned 25 on Friday, took up his usual position right at the back of the second heat as, with no fast losers going through, the race rolled along at a Sunday jog pace in perfect, cooler conditions after the heat earlier this week. Ingebrigtsen made his move approaching the bell, but his usual smooth acceleration was missing, and he ended up battling to the line to snatch the eighth and last qualifying berth. “I gave my all but I’m not myself,” said Ingebrigtsen. “I had to do what I could today.

Barcelona to play PSG at the Olympic Stadium in Champions League as Camp Nou still not ready

BARCELONA: Barcelona’s upcoming Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain will be played at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium, its home for the previous two seasons, the Spanish club said Friday. Barcelona had hoped to return to a newly renovated Camp Nou at the start of this season, but delays in construction have forced it to play elsewhere. The club has decided that it will host PSG at the 55,000-seat Olympic Stadium after it had been forced to face Valencia in its first home game of the Spanish league season at its tiny Estadi Johan Cruyff, which only seats 6,000 and is located outside the city. Barcelona will also play Getafe in the Spanish league on Sunday at the Johan Cruyff stadium, where its women’s team plays most of its games. European champion PSG will visit Barcelona on Oct.

Arsenal Executive Vice-Chair Lewis leaves club, Garlick named CEO

Arsenal announced a major boardroom reshuffle on Friday, with Executive Vice-Chair Tim Lewis leaving the Premier League club and Managing Director Richard Garlick promoted to Chief Executive Officer with immediate effect. Lewis, who was appointed Executive Vice-Chair in March 2023, has been advising Kroenke Sports & Entertainment (KSE) since 2007 and joined Arsenal’s board as Director in September 2020. Garlick, who arrived at Arsenal in 2021 as Director of Football Operations, has served as Managing Director for the past year. “Rich has made an enormous impact on all fronts as we continue to strive to win major trophies, be financially sustainable and put our supporters at the heart of everything,” Arsenal Co-Chair Josh Kroenke said. “At this moment, we would like to thank Tim for his continued dedication and commitment to Arsenal in a period of transformational change for the club. “He has played a pivotal role and ensured we are in a great position to continue to deliver our strategy in our ambition to win major trophies.” Arsenal have finished runners-up in the last three Premier League seasons, with their league title drought now 21 years. They again recruited heavily in the close season, adding the center-forward fans have long called for in Sweden’s Viktor Gyokeres, bolstering the attack with England’s Noni Madueke and Eberechi Eze and signing Spanish defender Cristhian Mosquera.
