Barcelona could be in for a central defensive crisis, with reports that Gerard Pique will definitely miss the Copa del Rey final.
RAC1 believe that the Spain international will be out of Wednesday’s final after medical tests concluded that he would not be fit.
Pique was brought off during Barca’s Champions League quarter-final first leg against Atletico Madrid with a back injury, and hasn’t played since.
Tata Martino had been optimistic that the defender would be back, but it is claimed that the former Manchester United man will not be fit for the game at Mestalla.
Marc Bartra also looks unlikely to play, with perennial injured Carles Puyol likely to start.
