WATCH: Barcelona’s Ansu Fati on crutches after Celta draw

Barcelona striker Ansu Fati has been spotted on crutches after Saturday’s 3-3 La Liga draw with Celta Vigo.

The 18-year-old had to go off in the first half of the game at Balaidos and Barcelona subsequently confirmed he had suffered a hamstring injury.

Fati was later spotted getting off the team bus on crutches as Barcelona made their way home from the match in Vigo.

The teenager has already been replaced in the Spain squad by Espanyol’s Raul de Tomas and will miss the World Cup qualifiers against Sweden and Greece.

It’s not yet clear how long Fati will be out of action for, although Diario AS are reporting it could be at least a month and he’ll miss games against Espanyol, Villarreal, Real Betis in La Liga and Benfica in the Champions League.
