Metzelder adds to Madrid concerns

Share

Madrid defender Christoph Metzelder
Christoph Metzelder is a serious doubt for Real Madrid CF's UEFA Champions League meeting with AC Milan after suffering a ligament sprain in his right ankle during training.

Mounting injuries
The German international defender, who has featured just once in the Liga this season, was taken to hospital for tests on the injury on Tuesday evening and is expected to be out of action for between a week and ten days. Midfielder Guti, meanwhile, will begin a specific recovery programme after suffering a twisted left ankle. Madrid can ill afford more injuries ahead of the Group C meetings against Milan on 21 October and 3 November. Cristiano Ronaldo has already been ruled out of both matches with an ankle problem while Fernando Gago and Ruud van Nistelrooy are struggling with thigh injuries and may miss the first game at the Santiago Bernabéu.
