Vinicius picked up the injury against Celta Vigo last weekend during Real Madrid’s latest La Liga match. The 23-year-old had to be taken off in the 18th minute due to said injury.
Following the scan results and the update on his injury, journalist Arancha Rodriguez is reporting that the Brazilian striker could be out for as many as six weeks.
Carlo Ancelotti will face a problem in fixing the XI in the upcoming weeks. He can make a switch to 4-2-3-1 instead of 4-3-3. It will be a big blow to Los Blancos. Real Madrid are standing at the top of the table with three wins out of three games.
