Adriano Correia Claro

I'm glad this was detected. It's a blow that he will be out 4-6 weeks, but it sounds like they do expect him to get over this.

Unless Mathieu arrives, I have no idea who will back up at LB in the interim. Montoya is not good on that side, Alves is even worse. Can Bartra play LB?

Someone from the b team, most likely. Or Mathieu, if he really is signed. I don't think Bartra can.

Heart problem forces Adriano to miss the pre-season
The Barcelona defender will be out for four to six weeks after an abnormal cardiac rhythm was detected.

Barcelona defender Adriano Correia failed his standard pre-season medical on Monday after the medics detected an irregular heart-beat. The full back, who can also play in the centre if necessary, underwent a full electrophysiology study (a procedure that examines the heart's electrical activity and pathways) today. Once the full extent of the problem was determined the player was treated as part of the same procedure. The problem is treated by identifying the cells causing the abnormal rhythm and killing these using high energy radio frequencies to ‘cook’ them.
The procedure involves the insertion of a catheter into the heart through the blood vessels in the groin or neck, and has a recovery time of four to six weeks. Barcelona confirmed the player would be doing specific training during this period.

Time for Grimaldo to shine?

Hardly. With Alba and most likely Mathieu in the squad, there won't be many minutes for a potential 3rd pick. I don't think he's even close to being ready either.

Damn shame about Adriano. Get well soon.

For pre-season Grimaldo will do the trick.

They are killing cells that couse irregural hearth beat?! his hearth problem are most likely not problem for regular person but this at least means our doctors are good and hopefully this means Messi is fine like they claim (vomiting and lack of stamina could also mean hearth problems)
