Real Madrid central defender Antonio Rudiger has been diagnosed with a leg muscle injury sustained in a Spanish league game on Saturday.
Madrid said Sunday that Rudiger has “an injury to the biceps femoris” in his right leg.
The 31-year-old German player had to be substituted in the 15th minute of Madrid’s 1-0 loss at Espanyol.
Madrid did not give a timetable for Rudiger’s return. Spanish media said he is expected to be out for two to three weeks.
Madrid play at Leganes in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey on Wednesday, host Atletico Madrid in the Spanish league on Saturday and visit Manchester City for the Champions League playoffs on February 11.
