Barcelona lose Jeremy Mathieu for three weeks

Barcelona have lost defender Jeremy Mathieu to an injury setback.

Mathieu picked up a calf injury during Saturday's defeat to Celta Vigo at the Camp Nou and is expected to be sidelined for two to three weeks.

Mathieu will miss the Champions League game against Ajax and the league trip to Almería. Depending on how well he recovers, he could be available for Barça's home encounter against Sevilla after the international break.
