Barcelona forward Thierry Henry has picked up a thigh injury on international duty with France and will be sidelined for about 10 days.

FOOTBALL Thierry Henry, Barcelona - 0

Henry, who scored with a penalty in his country's 3-1 win over Austria in a World Cup qualifier on Wednesday, returned to the Catalan capital for a scan on Thursday.

It revealed a small tear in his right thigh muscle, the La Liga champions said.

Sweden striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic sustained a blow to his right knee in their qualifier with Albania but should be fit to play at fifth-placed Valencia on Saturday, Barca added.

  1. now i really think that a loan move for Robinho is­ making sense. but above of all, Juan Mata is a really­ interesting player for a long term plan coz if Henry is­ like this a season long then it wont be good for Barca­ campaign. lets just hope Iniesta will be fit throughout­ this season..
