The striker had to be replaced shortly before half-time in Saturday’s match and Barca will make checks on the 32-year-old to “determine the exact extent of the discomfort”.

Suarez appeared to be troubled by a foul from Carlos Clerc midway through the first half and, having tried to play on, was replaced by Carles Perez just after Lionel Messi’s penalty had put Barca in front.

He watched on as Ernesto Valverde’s men fell apart in the second half, three goals in the space of seven minutes condemning them to a third away defeat of the league season.
