The Spain international was replaced just 12 minutes into the match at the Nou Camp and, according to Barca's medical team, the injury he suffered will see him out of action for between 'two to three weeks'.

Pique's injury is a further blow for Barca after this week's news that his central defensive partner Carles Puyol is set to be out for up to six weeks with a knee injury.

Barca, which won the match against Spartak 3-2 after trailing with 19 minutes left, faces Granada, Sevilla, Benfica and Real Madrid in the next month.
