Injury update provided on Barcelona star after latest setback on international duty

Barcelona star Frenkie de Jong has experienced some minor physical discomfort, as confirmed by the Netherlands' national football team after their recent Nations League victory over Greece. De Jong was substituted at half-time and is set to miss the upcoming match against Germany due to precautionary measures. The team released a statement indicating that the midfielder will not travel to Berlin for the game, as it is too soon for him to resume training.

Following his return to the training camp, Barcelona insider Alex Pintanel reported that the issue appears to be a glute discomfort, with no serious implications. The prognosis suggests that De Jong could be back in action within a week.
