• Midfielder injured during Copa del Rey game with Real
• Alexis Sánchez also injured in quarter-final success
Barcelona have said that Andrés Iniesta will be sidelined for three weeks with a muscle tear in his left thigh.
The midfielder was injured in the first half of Barcelona’s 2-2 draw with Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals on Wednesday. Barcelona advanced 4-3 on aggregate.
Barcelona also lost the forward Alexis Sánchez during the game with a shoulder injury that will keep him out for one or two weeks.
Both players will miss Saturday’s La Liga match at Villarreal and the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals next week, against either Valencia or Levante.
Barcelona are already without the striker David Villa, the midfielder Ibrahim Afellay and the defender Andreu Fontàs because of long-term injuries.
