Real Madrid’s Vinicius and Vazquez injured

MADRID, Spain (AFP) — Real Madrid forward Vinicius Junior and defender Lucas Vazquez are set to miss the club’s final La Liga matches of the season with injuries.

Los Blancos said Monday Vinicius has been diagnosed with an ankle sprain, while Vazquez has a thigh injury, with Spanish media reporting they may not return until the Club World Cup.

Reigning champions Madrid lost against La Liga leaders Barcelona on Sunday to fall seven points behind the Catalans with three matches remaining, virtually ensuring they will finish the season without a major trophy.

Madrid host Mallorca on Wednesday before visiting Sevilla on May 18 and welcoming Real Sociedad on May 25, in what will be coach Carlo Ancelotti’s final match at the helm.

The Brazilian football federation announced Monday that the Italian will take the reins of the Brazil national team at the end of the season.
