Barcelona midfielder Dani Olmo has been ruled out of Tuesday's Champions League trip to Benfica with a calf injury, the LaLiga club said on Sunday.

Tests revealed a strain to the player’s right calf muscle, which will keep him out of action for the next few days. Barça’s medical staff have not indicated how long Olmo will be out for but confirmed that he will sit out Tuesday’s Champions League clash with Benfica - the penultimate game of the group phase.
