Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong felt discomfort in his right ankle during the first half of the encounter against Celta Vigo and had to be replaced by Gavi in the 36th minute.
The Netherlands international suffered an injury that left him limping for several minutes until he asked Xavi Hernandez for a substitution after taking the ball from Jonathan Bamba.
Journalist Helena Condis confirmed that De Jong underwent several medical tests during half-time and is dealing with a sprained ankle.
The Dutchman joined teammate Pedri, who is also sidelined with injury, on the bench. The Spanish coach had to make strategic changes, using Joao Cancelo as a midfielder.
