Brazilian attacker Neymar has been ruled out for nearly a month, Barcelona officially announced : “He is expected to be out of action for three to four weeks.”

The injury occurred in the 22nd minute of Thursday night’s Copa del Rey second leg match against Getafe when Neymar was trying to dribble and square the ball with his left foot. Neymar was seen in crutches earlier today.

The news will be a big blow for Barcelona as they were hoping for the partnership of Messi and Neymar to develop, Messi had missed majority of the season due to a hamstring injury.

Barca will hope that Neymar will be available for the second leg in the Champions League encounter against Manchester City at the Nou Camp on 12 March.
