Real Madrid’s defender, Antonio Rudiger, faces 12 weeks after suffering a thigh injury.
Center-Back suffered from training injury this week after re-interpreting international duty with Germany.
Rudiger appeared in both parties, as Germany suffered an impressive defeat in Slovakia in the World Cup standings, before returning to his campaign on the way with a Little convincing victory over Northern Ireland.
A statement from Madrid read: “After the tests performed by Toni Rudiger for the medical services of Real Madrid, he has been diagnosed with an injury to the muscle of the rectum femorities in the left leg. Waiting for a more development.”
Although Madrid has not confirmed a deadline for his return, several reports to the Spanish press have stated that Rudiger faces an absence of 10 to 12 weeks.
A 12 -week dismissal would keep Rudiger until LaLiga’s clash with Celta Vigo on December 7.
The former Defender of the Chelsea will be lost with Atletico Madrid on September 27 and the first classic of the season in Barcelona on October 26 among a series of other league games. In addition, it will not be available for five champions league games, including meetings with Juventus and Liverpool.
Madrid has won three straight games to start the new season of Laliga under Xabi Alonso. On Saturday they visit the Real Sociedad.
