Barcelona have confirmed that Ronaldinho's season is effectively over after the troubled Brazilian suffered a pulled a thigh muscle in training.
The 28-year-old playmaker, who is rumoured to be on his way out of the Camp Nou at the end of the season after an 18-month battle with form and fitness, will be out of action until mid-May.
That rules him out of the majority of Barcelona's remaining La Liga games and both legs of a potential Champions League semi-final.
"During Thursday's training session the player unfortunately suffered a strain in his right leg," confirmed a club statement.
"The medical staff at the club confirmed this morning that tests have shown that the injury will keep him out for approximately six weeks."
