Barcelona teenager Pedri could miss the remainder of the campaign with the hamstring injury that he picked up during Thursday's Europa League quarter-final second leg with Eintracht Frankfurt.
The Spain international had to be replaced at the interval of his team's 3-2 defeat after picking up the injury.
Barcelona have now revealed that the 19-year-old has 'a rupture in his left biceps femoris', making it highly unlikely that he will be able to play again during the 2021-22 campaign.
"Tests carried out this morning (Friday) have confirmed that Pedri has a rupture in his left biceps femoris. He is out and his recovery will determine his availability," read a statement on Barcelona's Twitter account.
The midfielder, who is expected to be sidelined for at least two months, has again been a key player for Barcelona this season when available, making 22 appearances in all competitions, contributing five goals and one assist.
Pedri was absent for most of the first half of this season due to a hamstring problem, though, eventually making his return at the end of January.
Barcelona will take on Cadiz, Real Sociedad, Rayo Vallecano, Mallorca, Real Betis, Celta Vigo, Getafe and Villarreal in their final eight league matches of the season. body check tags ::
