Real Madrid midfielder Lucas Vazquez has sustained an injury to his left knee and will miss the final La Liga game against Deportivo La Caruna on Saturday.
Real Madrid medical staff explained on Monday that the 24-year-old "has been diagnosed with a medial collateral sprain in his left knee", according to the Spanish club's official website.
Staff added that Vazquez's recovery will "continue to be assessed", reports Efe.
The midfielder was injured during Sunday's La Liga game against Valencia at the Santiago Bernabeu and though he completed the match he was unable to train on Monday.
Vazquez will miss the last La Liga match against Deportivo, so that he can appear in the UEFA Champions League final against Atletico Madrid on May 28 in Milan's San Siro Stadium.
