Barca confirmed: "Tests tomorrow [Monday] will determine the exact extent of the injury."

Suarez, 32, is unlikely to link up with his Uruguay team-mates ahead of Friday's China Cup semi-final against Uzbekistan.

And his crock puts him at risk of missing massive Champions League matches against United at Old Trafford on April 10 and at the Nou Camp six days later.

Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde is already without Ousmane Dembele for both legs after he tore his hamstring in the 5-1 demolition over Lyon last week.

Former Liverpool star Suarez - a hated figure at Old Trafford - was substituted in the 90th minute at the Benito Villamarin Stadium having scored a stunning solo effort half an hour earlier.

He is now the joint-most prolific Uruguayan player in La Liga history alongside ex-Atletico Madrid forward Diego Forlan with 128 goals.

United completed a sensational fightback from 2-0 down in the first leg to win 3-1 in France and knock Paris Saint-Germain out of Europe.

Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer insists his side are not afraid to face five-time Champions League winners Barca with or without Suarez.

He said: "Weve shown against PSG that on any given day we can beat a top team.

"Then again theres so many variables and these games will be decided by margins.

"And of course with [our] VAR [decision], even though for me its a penalty, you can still be unlucky and not get it in the last minute. Then wed be out and no one would really remember the PSG performance.

"So yes, we can go all the way but youve got to be lucky and good along the way.

"The confidence in the players, its sky high. And the mood is good, the training attitude is good, so hopefully we can keep that run going."
