The partner ofBarcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets has taken to Instagram to show the extent of the player's strapping on his injured right ankle.
The Spanish international was left in a heap following a strong challenge byEibar'sGonzalo Escalante last weekend and having been stretchered from the field of play, he was perhaps somewhat fortunate to be diagnosed with ligament damage, which should keep him out of action for no more than a month.

Althought the injury means he will be out of action for several weeks, Busquets is at least making the most of some much needed time off with his partnerElena Galera, and their son Enzo.
And whilst sat enjoying some time with his child, a photo has emerged detailing the extent of the heavy strapping that has been placed around the midfielder's injured ankle.
Should his recovery go according to plan, Busquets could well return to trainingearlier than expected, which means he may yet be fit to face Paris Saint-Germain in Barcelona'sChampions League last 16 first-leg match in mid February.
