Blow for Real Madrid as midfield lynchpin ruled out for three weeks
"Real Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni is expected to miss at least three weeks due to a thigh strain sustained against Liverpool on Tuesday. Tchouameni played the full 90 minutes at Anfield as Madrid went down 1-0 but complained after the game of soreness in his left leg. Further tests have revealed an injury to the semitendinosus muscle and he now requires a period of rest."
"He will not be available for this weekend's trip across town to Rayo Vallecano, nor the clash with Elche on November 23. His name was also absent from the 24-man list named by France boss Didier Deschamps this afternoon for the World Cup qualifiers against Ukraine and Azerbaijan over the next fortnight. The hope is he will be fit for Madrid's Champions League clash at Olympiacos on November 26 or, if not, the game at Girona four days later."

Eduardo Camavinga or Dani Ceballos are the most likely midfield alternatives. Federico Valverde has been assessed and cleared of injury after coming off late against Liverpool.
