The forward will now miss Argentina's upcoming friendlies against Ecuador and Bosnia-Herzegovina later this month.

A brief statement on Barcelona's official website read: "The Argentinean has a muscle tear in his left hamstring."

Messi has scored 14 goals in 14 games for Barca so far this season.
