Lionel Messi sidelined for three weeks

1 Min Read

Barca star Lionel Messi  will be unavailable for up to three weeks after pulling his right thigh muscle in the 2 – 0 win over Almeria on Saturday.

This injury will rule him out of Tuesday’s clash against Celtic.

The World Footballer of the year scored the opening goal as Barcelona registered a club-record seventh straight La Liga win at the start of the season.

This is the Argentine’s second injury set back of the season after missing an earlier game due to bruising on his left thigh.

The player will also miss two Spanish League games against Valladolid and Osasuna.
