Eto'o Ruled Out For Two Months
Samuel Eto'o has been ruled out for at least two months after tearing a muscle in his thigh during the Trofeo Gamper game on Wednesday evening.

Club doctors have confirmed that Eto'o has suffered a partial tear of a tendon in his right thigh and will be sidelined for eight weeks.
It still has to be decided if a course of physiotherapy will be sufficient or whether the 27-year-old will require surgery to repair the damage.
Eto'o suffered a serious injury last September when he damaged his meniscus in a Champions League match against Werder Bremen and was out for six months.
The blow will temporarily end the discussion about the 'Fantastic Four' at FC Barcelona and will allow Giovani Dos Santos to stake a claim.
