Suarez has the same injury as Messi

Barcelona have not got their campaign off to a good start. It all started with an injury suffered by Leo Messi in his first day of training, up to now, with the first defeat of the season and another injury in attack.

Ernest Valverde now has Suarez out of play after doing tests on Saturday morning and declaring that the striker suffered an calf injury in the right leg.

Barcelona reported the reasons why the Uruguay man had to leave the field after 30 minutes at San Mames, but they could not avoid the bad news that Uruguayan is out for atleast a week, so he will already be unavailable for the next La Liga game.

"LAST HOUR" The tests done this morning on Luis Suarez have confirmed that he suffered a calf injury to his right leg. Recovery will mark his availabilty" Said the Barca team.

This is precisely the same injury that his team mate Leo Messi suffered, as he had to leave his first training after feeling pain in his leg and so he could not help the team in their league opener. It is hoped that Messi returns before Suarez to make-up the attack again, as without both of these key players, the cost on-field could be very high.
