Barcelona midfielder Dani Olmo will be sidelined for around three weeks with a right adductor injury, the club announced on Friday.

Barcelona midfielder Dani Olmo will be sidelined for around three weeks with a right adductor injury sustained in Thursday's 3-0 win over Osasuna. The LaLiga club confirmed the extent of Olmo's injury on Friday.

Olmo had scored his seventh league goal of the season from the spot before being forced off in the 28th minute. His departure did not affect Barcelona's performance as they extended their lead over second-placed Real Madrid to three points.

The timing of Olmo's injury is unfortunate, as he could now miss a crucial run of fixtures. These include a Champions League quarter-final double-header against Borussia Dortmund and the second leg of Barcelona's Copa del Rey semi-final against Atletico Madrid. Olmo's absence could have an impact on Barcelona's chances of success in these competitions.
