Carles Alena injured in Qatar and out until 2017

A problem certainly for Gerard Lopez, the B team coach, but also for Luis Enrique 

In Barcelona's friendly won over Al Ahli there was one piece of bad news, with an injury to midfielder Carles Alena. The B team player suffered a quadriceps injury in his left leg and will be out for two weeks. 

Evidently it's not a serious injury but it is sufficiently important to keep him out for the rest of the games this year. A problem certainly for Gerard Lopez, the B team coach, but also for Luis Enrique because he was probably going to use him at Camp Nou in the Copa del Rey clash with Hercules on December 21.

Alena scored a good goal in the first leg of that tie which finished 1-1 in Alicante.
