Neymar out for four weeks

The 22-year-old endured a miserable night
on Wednesday as Barca were beaten 2-1 by
Real Madrid, with the Brazil star guilty of
missing a glorious chance in the final
minute of normal time.
Neymar's misery has now been further
compounded by the news he will miss the
games against Athletic Bilbao, Villarreal,
Getafe and Elche, though the club will be
hopeful of him returning for the last day
clash with Atletico Madrid.
A statement on Barcelona's website said:
"The player suffered a concussion that
caused an edema in the fourth metatarsal
in his left foot that will require specific
treatment. Recovery time is approximately
four weeks."
Jordi Alba was withdrawn at half-time in
Wednesday's defeat and a further
examination has revealed the left-back
suffered a torn hamstring in his right leg.
As a result, the former Valencia man will
also be out of action for a period of three to
four weeks.
