Dani Ceballos left the pitch in tears after suffering an injury in Real Madrid’s Copa del Rey match against Real Sociedad. He was forced off in the final minutes after a heavy challenge from Take Kubo.
According to Real Madrid Confidencial, there are fears that Ceballos may have sustained a biceps femoris injury. If confirmed, his recovery could take three to four weeks, depending on his response to treatment.

Real Madrid had used all their substitutions, so they finished the match with ten players. Carlo Ancelotti and his squad now face a major concern as they prepare for upcoming fixtures.

The club have yet to release an official medical report on Ceballos’s condition. His absence would be a blow for Real Madrid, who are already dealing with a packed schedule.
