Barcelona defender Oscar Mingueza has urged Ansu Fati not to rush his comeback.

There have been reports in the last few days that Fati has suffered a setback in his recovery from a meniscus injury, which has kept him out since November 7 and could see him miss the remainder of the 2020/21 season.

"I hope he recovers as soon as possible, but if he has to spend three or four more months [out in order] to recover well, then let him do it," Mingueza told Esports COPE.

"Let him recover well, because he is very young and has many years ahead of him. That he doesn't want to rush or play before he has to, that he recovers well with his knee, because I'm sure that with what he has already shown he will be a top player."
