Rodrygo, Vazquez join Real Madrid injury list
Real Madrid announced that Rodrygo and Lucas Vazquez are both set for a spell on the sidelines after sustaining muscle injuries in the first half against Osasuna.
Rodrygo was taken off after just 20 minutes, while Vazquez lasted until half-time before making way.
The Brazilian has seen a more limited role for Madrid this season, playing just 667 minutes in LaLiga so far, but has netted three goals and registered one assist in that time. He is reportedly set to be out for five to six weeks.
He has also played the third-most crosses of any Los Blancos player in the Spanish top-flight (22), while he has attempted (32) and completed (14) the third-most dribbles in the squad so far this term.
Vazquez's absence will reportedly be about a month, giving Carlo Ancelotti a headache at right-back, with Dani Carvajal already out for the season with an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.
This news comes after Madrid confirmed that Eder Militao requires surgery on an ACL tear he suffered in the first half of the same game.
