Barcelona striker, Ferran Torres, has undergone surgery in appendicitis, confirmed the club.
Torres banged a triplet of assists during the victory of Clasico on Sunday over Real Madrid, who put Barcelona on the edge of the Liga sealing of the season, but has since been struck by the disease and succeeded in a successful operation on Wednesday.
The 25 -year -old will now recover and should miss the rest of the season.
It was only ten days before the Liga game final, but Barcelona can win the title Thursday evening with the victory in the city derby against Espanyol.
The title La Liga was almost on their own on Wednesday, until Real Madrid won a 2-1 victory of the fire against Mallorca with a winner of the stop time of the improbable striker Jacobo Ramon.
Torres only started 12 Liga games this season, and three in the Champions League, but his role in the team was important. The former Manchester City player was generally the first alternative in the three positions through the front line, the initial coverage of Robert Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal and Raphinha, who gave him 45 appearances overall.
In this case, Torres scored 19 very respectable goals all competitions. Perhaps its most notable performance after the clasico last weekend marked a splint as a 67th minute substitute in the return 4-2 victory against Atletico Madrid in March.
The recovery of an annex elimination can take place around a few weeks, which should mean that Torres is well rested when the pre-season begins for Barcelona in July.
