Barcelona man Piqué is injured

The FC Barcelona defender Gerard Piqué will be sidelined for around two weeks due to a "minor myofascial injury to the inner calf of the right leg", the Liga BBVA club confirmed through their official website.

The 27-year-old footballer, who received the injury during this Saturday's match against Real Sociedad de Fútbol, will miss the Liga BBVA matches against UD Almería and Real Valladolid CF. If he is out for the estimated length of time, he could be available again for the second leg of the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League against Manchester City FC.

So far Piqué has featured in 22 Liga BBVA matches for Barcelona, all of them in the starting eleven, scoring two goals.
