Latest news in Barcelona's transfer market. Roony Bardghji, a 20-year-old Swedish winger, has suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and will be out for between six and seven months. The injury occurred during training this Monday, August 10 and has halted the exit that the Catalan club was planning for the player.
Bardghji had to leave the session early after injuring the same knee where he had previously suffered a cruciate rupture during his time at Copenhagen. Subsequent tests confirmed the new diagnosis and have forced Barcelona to adjust their plans for the market.
Roony Bardghji stays at Barcelona due to the injury
Barcelona had decided to find an exit for Bardghji this summer with the aim of giving the winger more playing time during the 2026/27 season. The player had been left out of the Udine tournament squad while the club was in discussions to secure his departure.
The contemplated option was a loan, following Bardghji's limited involvement during his first season with the senior team. The Swede played 872 minutes in the 2025/26 season, ending with 2 goals and 4 assists in all competitions, as reported during the market.
Now, that operation is canceled due to the recovery timeline. With an estimated absence of six to seven months, Bardghji won't be able to join another team to gain continuity and will have to focus on the recovery process within Barcelona's structure.

Bardghji's departure is ruled out
The injury brings a direct change to Barcelona's sports and financial planning. The club had received interest in Bardghji, with Ajax among the teams linked to his future, but the medical situation prevents moving forward with an immediate deal.
Bardghji arrived at Barcelona from Copenhagen in July 2025 and signed until June 30, 2029. The signing was completed for an amount close to 2-3 million euros, according to reports at the time, as the club decided to bring in the Swede before his contract with the Danish side ended.
The previous issue with his right knee adds another layer of complexity to the process. Bardghji had already spent nearly a year away from the pitch due to a cruciate ligament injury in 2024, before returning to competition with Copenhagen and later signing with Barcelona.
The next step will be planning his recovery and subsequent gradual reintegration. For Barcelona, the priority now lies in managing a six to seven-month absence, while Roony Bardghji's departure is postponed, and the player will remain associated with the club during his recovery.
