MADRID, Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- Real Madrid has suffered its first injury setback ahead of the new La Liga season, with the club confirming that central midfielder Eduardo Camavinga will miss the start of the campaign with an ankle injury.
"Following tests conducted on Eduardo Camavinga by the Real Madrid Medical Services, the player has been diagnosed with a sprain to his right ankle. Awaiting further development," the club said on its website.
The injury means the Frenchman will miss the team's only friendly, against WSG Tirol on Tuesday, after returning to pre-season training following the Club World Cup. He will also sit out the opening game of the season at home to Osasuna on Aug. 19.
Camavinga is also doubtful for the second match of the campaign, away to newly promoted Oviedo the following weekend. ■
