Gerard Pique to face spell on sidelines

Pique to face spell on sidelines

Barcelona's Gerard Pique is likely to miss his side's La Liga meeting with Real Zaragoza this weekend after picking up a thigh injury.

The defender was forced off after 75 minutes of Barca's 3-1 victory over AC Milan last night, and the club's official website has revealed that the 25-year-old sustained an injury on the bicep femoris of his left thigh.

Barcelona have yet to announce a recovery date.

The former Manchester United player helped his side advance to their fifth Champions League semi-final in a row after defeating Serie A champions AC Milan 3-1 on aggregate.

Pep Guardiola's team will now face either Chelsea or Benfica in the next round.
