Frank Kessie has played eight games scoring just once since he arrived at the Camp Nou.
The 25-year-old sustained the injury in training on Wednesday morning at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper.
Recall that Kessie came on in the game against Inter Milan on Tuesday in the 83rd minute, replacing Gavi.
Barcelona lost 1-0 to the Nerazzurri at the San Siro stadium after Hakan Calhanoglu scored the only goal in the 45 minutes.
The Spanish side confirmed that, "Franck Kessie has a strained adductor muscle in his right thigh."
Barcelona revealed that Frank Kessie is expected to be on the sidelines for awhile.
The statement reads: "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"
Meanwhile, Barcelona have also confirmed that Andreas Christensen has suffered an injury.
The Danish centre back is set for spells on the sidelines due to a sprained ankle. It appears that the former Chelsea defender sustained the injury during their UEFA Champions League clash against Inter Milan.
The statement reads: "
Tests carried out on Wednesday have confirmed that the first team player Andreas Christensen has a sprained left ankle. He is unavailable and his recovery will dictate his return."
