Barcelona’s Iniesta out for a month

April 13, 2010 05:48 pm | Updated 05:48 pm IST - BARCELONA, Spain

Barcelona will be without key midfielder Andres Iniesta for its Champions League semifinal matches against Inter Milan.

The club said that Iniesta injured a muscle in his right leg during training and will be out for up to a month.

A similar injury forced him to miss the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinal against Arsenal. He returned as a late substitute in the second leg and again in Saturday’s domestic league clash against Real Madrid.
