Barcelona have reportedly received some good news with regards [Marc Casado’s knee injury](https://www.barcablaugranes.com/2025/3/17/24387666/marc-casado-out-for-the-season-barcelona-issue-update-on-midfielders-knee-injury) after conducting fresh tests.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Casado has not suffered a complete tear to his ligament and will therefore not need to undergo surgery.
The news means that there’s even a chance that Casado could potentially return before the end of the current season.
MD report Casado could potentially be fit for the final week of the league season and even a Champions League final if Barca were to go all the way.
That still seems a long way off right now but it could be good motivation for Casado as he bids to work his way back to fitness after such a disappointing setback.
Casado has been a real revelation this season after being promoted from Barca Atletic in the summer and been a key player for Hansi Flick.
It’s tough to see his season ended prematurely by injury but let’s hope it’s not a bad one and we can see him return in time to help Barca lift some trophies in May.
