    La Liga: Barcelona’s Match Against Osasuna Postponed After Team Doctor’s Death

    Barcelona’s LaLiga game against Osasuna on Saturday was postponed 20 minutes before kickoff following the unexpected death of first-team doctor Carles Miñarro García.

    Miñarro García joined Barça in 2017 and had been working with the first team since last summer having previously worked with the futsal side.

    “Barcelona are deeply saddened to announce the passing of first-team doctor Carles Miñarro García this evening,” the club said in a statement.

    “For this reason, the match against Osasuna has been postponed and will be rearranged for a later date.

    The Barcelona board of directors and all staff extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends during this difficult time.”

    Sources told ESPN that Barça players learned of Miñarro García’s death when they arrived at the Olympic Stadium for the fixture against Osasuna.

    The team unanimously agreed that the best thing to do was request the postponement of the match, to which LaLiga agreed.

    “Always in our hearts, Doc,” midfielder Gavi posted on Instagram. “We will miss you a lot.”

    “I still can’t believe it,” teammate Pedri wrote. “Sending a huge hug to all of Carles’ family and friends.”

    Defender Ronald Araújo said on X: “It’s hard to believe. Rest in peace, Doc. Sending strength to Carles’ family and friends. May God strengthen your hearts in this difficult time

    Most supporters were already inside the stadium when the decision was taken to call the game off.

    At first there was uncertainty as the players didn’t come out to warm up, with an announcement arriving 20 minutes before the game was due to begin that it had been suspended.

    The same announcement then followed in English and a short statement was put up on the big screen explaining why the game would not go ahead on Saturday, with fans respectfully making their way to the exits

    The game will take place at a later date yet to be confirmed.

    Barcelona currently lead LaLiga, one point clear of Atlético Madrid and three ahead of Real Madrid.
