Lewandowski «suffers from muscle discomfort in the biceps femoris of the left leg“Said the club in a statement, adding that the duration of his absence would depend on the evolution of his injury. For this clash in Madrid, FC Barcelona must already do without Pedri and Ousmane Dembele.
According to Spanish outlet Relevo, the Pole is expected to rest for two weeks and return in time for the La Liga clasico between Barca and Real on March 19. Other media, however, indicate that he could return sooner. The Spanish Cup semi-final second leg will take place on April 5.
