Araujo suffered a hamstring injury and there were initial expections of an absence of 4-6 weeks.

However, it's now been assessed that Araujo will miss four months - at least - with the injury requiring surgery.

Barcelona confirmed the injury on Monday afternoon, and say he will undergo surgery in Finland this week.
