Danish defender Andreas Christensen, who finished runners-up in the Spanish league last season, will be out of action for up to two months after suffering an Achilles tendon injury, according to local reports yesterday.
“Christensen is suffering from tendinitis in his left Achilles tendon,” Barcelona said in a statement, without specifying the expected period of his absence.
Christensen, 28, will miss several matches, including the matches against Athletic Bilbao and Girona in the league, in addition to the Catalan team’s first match in the Champions League.
Barcelona will be without Uruguayan defender Ronald Araujo until November after he suffered a hamstring injury during the Copa America this summer.
