Barcelona's Andreas Christensen to miss weeks with injury

Barcelona defender Andreas Christensen is expected to be sidelined for a few weeks following a thigh injury diagnosed on Sunday. The 30-year-old Danish centre-back was injured during Barcelona's 3-1 victory over Sevilla in LaLiga on Saturday, which maintained the team's perfect start to the season.

Barcelona confirmed in a statement that Christensen's recovery timeline will dictate his availability moving forward. This injury will prevent him from participating in Denmark's Nations League matches during the upcoming international break.

Denmark is scheduled to play four matches, starting with an away game against Norway on Thursday, followed by a home match against Wales on Sunday. They will then face Portugal at home before a return fixture in Wales on October 4.

Barcelona's win against Sevilla has positioned them six points clear at the top of LaLiga ahead of Real Madrid's derby match against Atletico Madrid.
