Franck Kessie joins Barcelona's long injury list

Barcelona midfielder Franck Kessie has joined the club's long injury list.

The Ivorian midfielder came on in the second half against Inter Milan but finished the game with a thigh strain.

“The first team player Franck Kessie has a strained adductor muscle in his right thigh. He is ruled out and his recovery will dictate his return," said the club.

Barcelona are missing seven players now - Ronald Araujo, Jules Kounde, Hector Bellerin, Frenkie de Jong, Memphis Depay and Andreas Christensen, who suffered a twisted ankle against Inter Milan.
