Swedish football winger Roony Bardghji is set to undergo surgery on his right knee. As a result, the Spanish champions FC Barcelona will be without him at the start of the new La Liga season, according to the AP agency. Bardghji sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury during Monday's training session.

Club management had been considering loaning out the 20-year-old in recent weeks. Bardghji, who arrived at Camp Nou from Danish club FC Copenhagen, played 28 competitive matches for Barcelona last season, scoring two goals and providing four assists. He is under contract with the Catalan giants until 2029.
