BARCELONA - Sevilla striker Luis Fabiano
will be out for around six weeks after injuring his right knee
in Sunday's 2-0 defeat at Athletic Bilbao, the La Liga club said
on Monday.
The Brazil international was stretchered off with around 20
minutes left at Bilbao's San Mames stadium and it was initially
feared the injury was more serious.
However, Sevilla said on their website
medical tests had confirmed the 30-year-old would be sidelined
for around six weeks.
Sevilla's form has been erratic this season and Sunday's
defeat left them outside the European qualification places in
seventh on 38 points from 27 matches.
