La Liga outfit Girona have on Friday announced the extent of the injury suffered by midfielder Ivan Martin.
Martin, for his part, was forced into a premature departure from proceedings earlier this week, as Girona got the better of Slovan Bratislava in a Champions League clash.
The 25-year-old's exit marked a major source of concern, with Martin having played a key role for the Catalans over the early months of the campaign.
In turn, it will come as a blow to all associated with Michel's side to learn that the Spaniard is set for an incoming spell on the sidelines.
As per a statement across Girona's website and social media platforms on Friday:
'MEDICAL COMMUNICATION | Ivan Martin suffers an injury to the adductor of his left leg. Down time: 2-3 weeks.'
COMUNICAT MEDIC | Ivan Martin pateix una lesio a l'adductor de la cama esquerra.Temps de baixa: 2-3 setmanes.
