Barcelona’s Fermin López: ‘Life and Football Are Cruel’ After World Cup Hopes End
Barcelona midfielder Fermín López has successfully undergone surgery to repair a fractured fifth metatarsal suffered late in the La Liga campaign. The 23-year-old shared on social media that “life and football are cruel when you least expect or deserve it,” adding that he will come back stronger both physically and mentally. The injury ruled him out of Spain’s World Cup squad just as preparations were peaking. A La Masia graduate with 13 goals and 17 assists this season, López will now focus on a three-month recovery. He plans to support his club and country from home while building towards a full return.
