Tests reportedly found edema in the back of Raphinha’s right thigh but no greater ailment, according to an October 2, 2026 RotoWire update citing Marca reporter Cristina Navarro. The report said Barcelona’s October 10 match against Getafe remained possible for him; it did not confirm he would be fit or selected.

What did Raphinha’s tests show?

RotoWire reported on October 2, citing Marca’s Cristina Navarro, that Friday’s tests confirmed edema at the back of Raphinha’s right thigh and found no greater ailment. The update also described the problem as recurring in a similar area. This is secondary reporting; it is not an independently verified Barcelona medical bulletin.

The report establishes neither an injury grade nor a precise recovery timeline. “No greater ailment” should not be read as meaning there is no injury: the reported finding was thigh edema.

Will Raphinha play against Getafe?

The October 10 match against Getafe was described as possible, not as a confirmed return date. The update said Barcelona intended to be cautious and that coach Hansi Flick would use Raphinha only once he was fully fit. A possible return therefore depended on his recovery and did not guarantee availability or selection.

What else did the report say?

RotoWire cited 14 goals as context for Raphinha’s importance at the time of its update. The cited passage does not specify the season scope for that figure, so it should be understood as RotoWire’s reported context rather than an independently checked season tally.

The October 2 report is a snapshot, and the underlying Marca article and a direct Barcelona medical statement were not independently verified. For a current status, check Barcelona’s latest announcement and the squad named for the Getafe match.
