JAKARTA - Real Madrid will be without captain Sergio Ramos for the Champions League away match against Inter Milan. Los Blancos confirmed on Thursday that Ramos suffered a hamstring injury while on international duty with Spain.
Ramos was substituted in the first half when his team beat Germany 6-0 on Tuesday.
"After undergoing examination under the supervision of Real Madrid's medical team, Sergio Ramos has a hamstring problem," Real said in a statement.
Local media reports that Ramos will miss a trip to Villarreal in La Liga this weekend and a Champions League trip to Inter Milan next week and the match against Alaves.
Real have a poor record without their captain, losing seven of the eight Champions League games in which Ramos has not played.
His central defense partner Raphael Varane will also undergo a fitness check on Friday, after injuring his shoulder while playing for France during the international break. Nacho Fernandez will also be examined after limping off in last month's El Clasico win against Barcelona.
The good news for the 13-time European champion is defender Eder Militao who has recorded a negative result in the COVID-19 test.
Belgian striker Eden Hazard and midfielder Casemiro have also been allowed to resume training after testing positive before the international break.
Real face a grueling schedule with matches against Alaves, Shakhtar Donetsk, Sevilla, Borussia Moenchengladbach and Atletico Madrid in the next three weeks.
