Barcelona confirm hamstring injury for Jordi Alba

Barcelona have confirmed that left-back Jordi Alba suffered a hamstring injury in Sunday’s draw against Sevilla at the Camp Nou.

The 31-year-old hobbled off late in the second half and was replaced by new signing Sergino Dest for the final 15 minutes.

Barca haven’t said yet how long Alba will be out for but it comes at a good time for the defender given the club are not in action for two weeks due to the international break.

MEDICAL UPDATE | Tests carried out this morning have confirmed that @JordiAlba has a muscular injury in his right hamstring.
