'The assessment is negative': Xavi provides worrying update on Kessie injury

"The general assessment is negative," Xavi said when asked about Franck Kessie injury in the Plzen game.

"It looks bad for Kessie. Until the injury, he played a remarkable match. He was very well positioned.

"Now, the Europa League remains, with good teams in it. We are going to fight to win it, to compete until the end," Xavi adds.

Kessie seemed to pull his hamstring in the second while moving with the ball.

The Ivorian midfielder may likely be sidelined for a few weeks after this unfortunate injury.
