Barcelona left-back Lucas Digne suffered a hamstring injury during Saturday's 4-1 win over Villarreal, the LaLiga champions have confirmed. The 23-year-old France international was substituted after 75 minutes at Camp Nou, with Jordi Alba coming on in his place. A club statement released by Barcelona on Sunday stated Digne had suffered "an overload in the femoral biceps of his right leg". Barca did not put a timeframe on Digne's recovery period as they enter the final two matches of the LaLiga campaign level on points at the summit with Real Madrid.
