Barcelona and Spain midfielder Pedri is set for a significant spell out after suffering a tear in his hamstring.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Barcelona confirmed that the 22-year-old had a tear in the distal biceps femoris muscle in his left thigh.<\/p>\n

The biceps femoris is part of the hamstring group at the back of the thigh.<\/p>\n

The club did not give a recovery timeline, instead stating that \u201cthe player\u2019s recovery will dictate his return to action\u201d.<\/p>\n

Pedri had played in 41 consecutive games for Barcelona, and has missed just one of Hansi Flick\u2019s 73 matches as manager.<\/p>\n

The midfielder was set to miss Barcelona\u2019s next La Liga match against Elche after receiving a red card for a late challenge on Aurelien Tchouameni during Sunday\u2019s 2-1 loss to Real Madrid.<\/p>\n

Pedri has made 215 appearances in all competitions for Barcelona since joining the club from Las Palmas in 2020 aged 17.<\/p>\n

The Spaniard has suffered several hamstring injuries since joining the club, including one that kept him out for over three months between September 2021 and January 2022.<\/p>\n

He joins a long list of Barcelona injury absentees including Gavi, Raphinha, Joan Garcia and Marc-Andre ter Stegen, though Robert Lewandowski and Dani Olmo have returned to training.<\/p>\n

Flick\u2019s side are second in La Liga, five points behind leaders Real.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
