Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo has collected a thigh injury.

Barcelona face an anxious wait to discover the severity of the knock Araujo picked up before Saturday's win against Granada.

Araujo was set to start the game alongside Oscar Mingueza in the middle of defence but ended up being replaced by Samuel Umtiti at the last minute after getting injured in the warm-up.

Barça released a short statement after the game saying "Araujo has right thigh discomfort" and that "further tests are pending" to discover the exact nature of the problem.
