Barcelona have offered an update on Jules Kounde’s fitness after the Frenchman was forced out of Sunday’s draw against Granada in La Liga.

Kounde had to be replaced in the first half after sustaining a knee injury, and Barcelona have confirmed he’s out of action.

Here’s the club’s official statement:

“Tests this Monday morning have revealed that Jules Kounde has sprained the lateral collateral ligament in his right knee, and the French defender will be unable to play until the injury heals. This also means he will miss out on playing for his country during the international break.
