Messi suffers hip injury

Lionel Messi could face a period on the sidelines after injuring his hip in Barcelona's 1-0 win over Villarreal.

Messi, who captained the Catalan outfit at El Madrigal, set up Sandro Ramirez for the late winner in the La Liga clash.

However, Barca boss Luis Enrique revealed after the match that the Argentine had suffered a hip injury and will undergo tests on Tuesday to determine the extent of the problem.

Munir El Haddadi, meanwhile, picked up a thigh problem in the same match.
