Real Madrid on Friday announced that their midfielder Luka Modric has suffered an injury.

“Following tests carried out on Luka Modrić by the Real Madrid Medical Services, an injury to the back of his left thigh has been diagnosed. His progress will be monitored,” the Spanish powerhouse said in a statement.
