Dani Ceballos was injured on Tuesday in Real Madrid's last training session before the match against Shakhtar Donetsk. The midfielder will be out until after the World Cup in Qatar 2022.

Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos suffered a muscle problem in the club's final training session ahead of their Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk, adding to the absence of Belgian goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.

The medical staff of the 'Merengue' team have examined the extent of the injury and, according to 'Relevo', the worst predictions have been confirmed. The midfielder's hamstring injury will keep him sidelined until after the World Cup.

The same media outlet reported that he will undergo an MRI scan this Thursday to determine the exact extent of the muscular problem. As a result, Ancelotti will not be able to count on the midfielder in this month of intense sporting activity.

This injury has happened in the same week in which several media published that Real Madrid will not make any renewal offer to the former Real Betis player.
