Andreas Christensen pulled up while playing for Denmark on Thursday, which was subsequently determined to be a calf injury. This delivered Barcelona another blow.
Christensen's injury has now been officially diagnosed by Barcelona after examinations by the team's medical staff on Saturday established that the problem is with his left calf.
Christensen "is unavailable for selection and his rehabilitation will decide his comeback," according to the Blaugrana.
The statement reads: "MEDICAL NEWS | Tests carried out on Saturday on the first team player Andreas Christensen have shown that he has an injury to his left calf. He is unavailable for selection and his recovery will determine his return"
Conclusion
With fewer than two weeks before El Clasico, this indicates that the defender will be out for an extended period of time, with a minimum absence of three weeks anticipated.
Together with Christensen and Pedri and Ousmane Dembele, who also had setbacks with their own muscular issues, they will all miss that game.
With a one-goal advantage from the first leg of their Copa del Rey semifinal at the Santiago Bernabeu, Barcelona will want to finish the job on April 5 at The Camp Nou.
