Kounde and Eric Garcia join list of Barça injured defenders
The two centre-backs both went off injured against Valencia on Saturday
Bad news for Xavi. First Eric Garcia and then Jules Kounde both picked up knocks in the dramatic 1-0 win over Valencia on Saturday.
Garcia went off injured in the first half with a groin issue and Kounde limped off after the break, although Xavi downplayed the significance of it.
Gerard Pique was the only fit centre-back by the end of the game and he partnered Marcos Alonso.
Xavi says he does not think either Garcia or Kounde picked up serious problems but there will be further news after tests on Sunday.
Barça are already without Ronald Araujo, Andreas Christensen and Sergi Roberto in defence.
