Barcelona has confirmed that Dutch goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen will be out of action for around two weeks following an injury to his leg.

The 27-year-old shot-stopper has an injury in his soleus muscle in his left leg and the doctors have said he will be sidelined for around about two weeks.

The Dutchman had already missed three weeks of playing time in October due to an ankle injury he suffered while on international duty with the Netherlands.

Since joining Barca from Ajax Amsterdam at the beginning of the 2016-17 season, Cillessen has only managed to keep two clean sheets from four appearances in all competitions for the La Liga side.
