Xavi provides early update on Kounde injury, player confirms it

"Jules Kounde has strong discomfort, but it doesn't look like an injury," Xavi said after the win against Valencia.

The Frenchman confirmed the coach's words: "I think it's a muscle overload. I don't think I have anything serious."

The Barcelona centre-back had to be taken off during the game after an injury scare.

Kounde only recently returned from a muscle injury suffered during the international break.
