• Robert Lewandowski Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski has suffered a torn thigh muscle, the club announced on Tuesday. The Poland captain is now facing a spell on the sidelines that could see him miss next week’s LaLiga clash against Real Madrid.
The 37-year-old played the full 90 minutes and scored in Poland’s 2-0 World Cup qualifying win over Lithuania on Sunday.
“Lewandowski has a muscle injury in the biceps femoris of the left thigh. His recovery time will depend on how the injury evolves,” Barcelona said in a statement.
Spanish media have reported that Lewandowski is expected to be out for four to six weeks, making him a doubt for El Clasico at the Santiago Bernabeu on October 26.
The veteran striker joins a growing list of absentees for coach Hansi Flick, with Raphinha, Gavi and Dani Olmo also sidelined. Goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen is still recovering from back surgery.
However, Barcelona could be boosted by the returns of Lamine Yamal and Fermin Lopez, who are expected to be available after the international break. —Reuters
