Medical: Henry Doubtful for Spanish Super Cup

Barcelona's medical staff has announced that Barcelona player Thierry Henry (31) will likely miss this Sunday's opening leg of the Spanish Super Cup against Athletic Bilbao.

The Barcelona striker has been suffering from pain in both of his Achilles tendons since the end of the team's American tour and has decided not to travel with the French national team for its upcoming World Cup qualifier against the Faroe Islands.

According to team doctor Ricardo Pruna,
"Right now it is doubtful" whether Henry will be able to participate in the Super Cup match against Athletic. The Frenchman will undergo tests later this week to determine whether he will appear in Bilbao or if he will have to wait until August 19th's Gamper Trophy contest against Manchester City for his next action on the pitch.
