Barca announced: "First Team player Lamine Yamal had trauma to his right ankle during yesterday's game against CD Leganés. Tests this morning have shown a grade 1 lesion of the anterior intertibio-peroneal ligament.

"The approximate withdrawal time will be between 3 and 4 weeks."

Yamal had been playing for a month after his previous ankle injury, which kept him off the field for several weeks.
