Barcelona fullback Douglas has suffered a hamstring injury that is likely to keep him out for two months, the club said on Wednesday.
"He has a hamstring injury to his right leg. The estimated time for recovery is around eight weeks," the club said in a statement.
The right back position has been a problem for Barca and while Dani Alves has renewed his contract with them, they have little cover.
Along with Douglas there is the versatile Adriano, who has been linked with a move to Roma while new signing Aleix Vidal will not be available until January due to ban on Barca by FIFA on signing players.
