The Brazilian left-back will be unavailable for Barca's final match of the season...

Barcelona left-back Maxwell will be out for three weeks after suffering a muscle injury in the Blaugrana's weekend match at Sevilla, reports Marca.

The Brazilian has a hamstring tear in his right leg which will require a recovery period of at least three weeks, thus ruling him out of this Sunday's match at the Camp Nou against Valladolid. It is a match which will determine whether or not Barca take home a second consecutive Liga title.

Maxwell's injury has coincided with French left-back Eric Abidal's return from a six-week spell out with injury. The Frenchman replaced Maxwell in Saturday's match and is expected to start this Sunday's fixture.
