Neymar injured his foot in Barcelona's 2-1 loss to Real Madrid at the Mestalla stadium on Wednesday,and will now be sidelined for four weeks.
"The player sustained a contusion which caused an edema in the fourth metatarsal in his left foot" the club announced on its official site
"He will be sidelined for four weeks."
He will now most likely miss Barcelona's remaining league fixtures and would now concentrate on getting fit for the 2014 World Cup which his country is hosting.
Neymar is not the only Barcelona player to have sustained an injury in the game,Spanish leftback Jordi Alba is equally sidelined for up to three to four weeks.
