Real Madrid will be without Dani Ceballos for up to two months due to the injury she suffered at Real Sociedadadad last night.
Ceballos slowly broke into San Sebastián after a heavy challenge from Home Side’s Take Kubo in the Copa del Rey semifinal, the first leg that visitors won 1-0 thanks to a Brazilian star Endrick.
It initially seems to be an impact injury, but the tests this morning confirmed that Spain international has hurt a muscle.

A statement from the club read: “They follow the tests conducted today at Dani Ceballos by Real Madrid medical services, has been diagnosed with muscle injury. His recovery will be evaluated.”
By the end of April
Reports in Spain indicate that Ceballos will not return until the end of April.
It is another blow to Madrid’s boss Carlo Ancelotti, whose team has struggled with injuries throughout the season, especially in defensive areas.
Back Four issues meant that the middle Fede Valverde and Aurelien Tchouameni had to take on defensive roles, allowing cevelos to appear regularly in the middle section.
Ceballos could lose at least 10 games of Real Madrid
But the former Arsenal will now lose both legs of the upcoming Champions League conflict with Atletico’s opponents, as well as the Crunch League games against the former Real Betis club, Rayo Vallecano, Villarreal, Leganes, Valencia, Alves, Athletic Bilbao and Getafe.
Ancelotti still has many options and seems likely that either veteran Luka Modric or Turkey International Arda Guler will have more opportunities in the coming weeks.
