The Frenchman was taken off early at Real Valladolid

Antoine Griezmann could reportedly miss Barcelona’s last two games of the season after picking up an injury against Real Valladolid on Saturday.

Manager Quique Setien said after the match that the Frenchman asked to be taken off at half-time because he felt some discomfort in the opening 45 minutes.

RAC1 are reporting that Griezmann has a “quadriceps problem” that could see him ruled out of Barca’s final games against Osasuna and Alaves.

After a busy week Barcelona now have two days off before they begin their preparations for Thursday’s match at the Camp Nou, their last La Liga home game of the season.

It’s not clear how serious Griezmann’s injury it but Barca won’t want to take risks with the Champions League still to come in August.
