Neymar doubtful for Catalan derby

Barcelona have revealed Brazilian forward Neymar picked up a 'minor injury' in Saturday's El Clasico clash and could miss up to a fortnight.

The 24-year-old would have missed Tuesday's Champions League dead rubber against Borussia Monchengladbach and the La Liga weekend trip to Osasuna due to being suspended, but there is a doubt he could miss Barca's clash with Espanyol the following weekend.

The former Santos player was substituted off in the Real Madrid match and could be seen holding an ice pack to his leg. Reports since indicate the forward has sustained a thigh injury, rather than a strain in his adductor muscle as first thought.

Gerard Pique also missed the club's training session on Monday following a knock against Madrid, but is expected to return for the tie with Osasuna.
