FC Barcelona's Portuguese striker Joao Félix sprained his right ankle in training and will be unavailable for Wednesday's late La Liga Matchday 20 match against Osasuna Pamplona, the Catalan club announced in a statement .
The player on loan from Atlético Madrid could miss upcoming league matches and is a doubt for Barca's Champions League last-16 first leg against Napoli on February 21.
This is a new blow for Catalan coach Xavi Hernandez, already deprived of several major players including Marc-André Ter Stegen, Gavi, Alejandro Balde and Raphinha.
Under pressure for several weeks, Xavi announced on Saturday that he would leave the Blaugrana club at the end of the season, after another setback for his team against Villarreal (5-3) at home.
