Barcelona's Seydou Keita celebrates his strike against Sporting Gijon
Seydou Keita has been ruled out of action for two weeks, having picked up an injury during the Club World Cup Final.

According to Marca, Barca club doctors have diagnosed Keita with a two centimetre tear in the semitendon muscle of his right leg. He will, therefore, be out for at least 15 days.

The Malian international was substituted at half-time, with his substititute, Pedro, going on to score the vital equalizer.

It is currently expected that Keita will be fit just in time for the African Nations Cup.
