Barcelona have confirmed that Jules Kounde suffered a hamstring injury in their Champions League semi-final draw with Inter on Wednesday.
Kounde started the 3-3 draw in Barcelona, but was forced to go off in the 42nd minute of the first leg, being replaced by Eric Garcia.
Spanish media reported the full-back could be sidelined for three weeks, which would force him to sit out the second leg in Milan next Tuesday, as well as the Clasico against Real Madrid on May 11.
“Tests carried out on first team player Jules Kounde this morning have shown he has a distal hamstring injury in his left leg,” Barcelona said in a statement.
