"As per the report, the veteran centre-forward will likely be sidelined for a period of 4-6 weeks following his hamstring injury. It means that not only will Lewandowski miss the upcoming La Liga game against Girona and the subsequent UEFA Champions League clash against Olympiacos, but he is also ruled out of the first El Clasico of the season. Barcelona play Real Madrid away at the Santiago Bernabeu on 26 October, and Lewandowski's recovery timeline of 4-6 weeks means he will not be ready in time for the trip to the Spanish capital."
"Lewandowski returned to training on Tuesday at the Ciutat Esportiva, where he underwent medical tests after experiencing discomfort following Sunday's match in Lithuania, a World Cup qualifier. The Barça striker even scored in the 64th minute to make it 0-2 for his national team, and played the entire match, despite having felt some discomfort on the field. Now, the veteran will be sidelined for at least a month, in a season during which he has already lost his starting spot to Ferran Torres."
