Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior has been ruled out of Real Madrid’s UEFA Champions League match against Liverpool due an hamstring injury.

The Brazilian’s absence is a big blow for Carlo Ancelotti’s side, who are currently sat 18th in the 36-team Champions League table.

Following the tests carried out by Real Madrid Medical Services he has been diagnosed with an injury to the femoral biceps of his left leg he
could reportedly remain out for a month.

Vinicius is Madrid’s top scorer in both the Champions League and La Liga this season, having bagged 12 goals across the two competitions.

Summer signing Kylian Mbappe may now be deployed to play the preferred left-wing position in Vinicius’ absence.
