Barcelona's crisis continues as they announce an injury to another player.
Barcelona have announced another injury to a member of the squad, with Sergi Roberto said to have suffered a hamstring injury.
The 31-year-old captain was substituted in the 0-0 draw against Getafe on Sunday and was replaced by Eric Garcia.
Roberto's injury
The Blaugrana announced via their official channels that Roberto hurt his left hamstring. The announcement comes after the midfielder/right-back went off injured over the weekend, and upon further testing, the nature of his injury was determined.

The club failed to state an expected return date, saying his availability would be determined by the progress of his recovery.
Roberto's injury is another on a long list of injuries for Barcelona in the past few months, with Ousmane Dembele, Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, and Andreas Christensen all suffering injuries of varying degrees at some points over the past few months.
The Barcelona academy graduate has been integral to Xavi Hernandez's team this season, shuffling between right-back and centre midfield depending on the needs of the club.
