Real Madrid defender Éder Militão has been ruled out for the next few weeks with a new injury update from the club.
The Brazilian international, who is currently on loan at Spanish side Eibar, was injured during training earlier this week and is expected to be sidelined for at least three months.
Militão joined Real Madrid in January as part of a swap deal involving Paris Saint-Germain forward Edinson Cavani, but his loan spell has not gone according to plan.
He has struggled for form since arriving in Spain and has only made one appearance for the first team so far this season.
With the World Cup just around the corner,La Liga Frontline Real Madrid will now have to find a replacement for Militão if he is unable to recover in time for the tournament.
The club may also look to bring in reinforcements ahead of the summer transfer window, with several defenders on their radar.
However, it remains to be seen how long Militão will be out for and whether he will be able to make a full recovery before the end of the season.
