Manchester City's Chilean goalkeeper Claudio Bravo suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon in training on Monday.
The 35-year-old had scans in Manchester to confirm the injury and he will fly to Barcelona for further tests on Thursday.
Bravo's injury leaves City reliant on 20-year-old Daniel Grimshaw to act as back-up to first choice Ederson.
Midfielder Kevin de Bruyne has already been ruled out for three months after picking up a knee injury in training.
