Real Madrid has officially announced the injury of their Spanish international player Dani Carvajal, along with the duration of his absence from the royal club. The right-back suffered a muscle injury to the calf muscle in his left leg, which will prevent him from participating with the team in the upcoming period. Dani was injured during the match against Granada and was substituted at halftime, with Lucas Vázquez replacing him.
Real Madrid's official website published a statement confirming Carvajal's injury, stating: "The player is suffering from an injury to the calf muscle in his left leg." Carvajal is expected to be sidelined for approximately 3 to 4 weeks, which could mean missing around 6 matches, thus he may be ready to face Atlético Madrid in the Supercopa.
