It is the second muscle injury suffered by the Real Madrid striker this season. In August this year, the Brazilian had a similar problem, in the same muscle, but in his right leg. Now, he faces a breakthrough.
In a statement, Real Madrid stated that the case “is pending development”. Vini left the Qualifiers game 20 minutes into the first half, did not remain with the team delegation and traveled straight to Spain to undergo exams.
If the period of two and a half months away from games is confirmed, Vini Jr will miss Real in nine games of the Spanish Championship, two of the Champions League and will not participate in the Spanish Super Cup, in addition to the first rounds of the Copa del Rey.
