Yet another injury hits Camp Nou as Toure Yaya is confirmed out of action till November.


After conducting tests on the injured area, Touré Yaya has been ruled out of action for at least four weeks after tests revealed that he has torn the femoral biceps in his left leg during the victory over Levante on Saturday evening. The tear to a muscle in his left leg will see him miss all of next month in active soccer while he receives treatment. The Ivorien international will return to action in November. This is yet another blow for coach Frank Rijkaard, who has lost many key players to injury. Toure will be missing in Tuesday's Champions League match against VfB Stuttgart, a match the strong midfielder had hoped to play, considering his unquenchable thirst to win the Champions League trophy with FC Barcelona this season.


Touré was hurt in the match against Levante, when, five minutes to the end of the game, he limped out of the action in the Ciutat de Valencia and was escorted down the tunnel. The 24-year-old could not be substituted as Barça had already made all three of their changes and the team were forced to end the encounter with ten men.
