Barcelona's disastrous weekend continued with the news French international defender Jeremy Mathieu will be out for up to three weeks due to a calf injury.

Mathieu suffered the injury in the Catalans' shock 1-0 home defeat to Celta Vigo on Saturday and will certainly miss the visits to Ajax and Almeria in the next week.

The 31-year-old will also be a serious doubt for France's friendly matches against Albania and Sweden later this month.
