Barcelona captain Andres Iniesta will be out for between six and eight weeks, the Spanish champion confirmed on Saturday, after he suffered knee ligament damage in a 3-2 win at Valencia.

Iniesta was stretchered from the field in tears after just 14 minutes, but fears he could be sidelined for months were eased by tests upon his return to Barcelona.

"After the first diagnosis carried out at Mestalla, the tests in Barcelona have shown the extent of the injury," Barca said in a statement.
