On Monday, the club confirmed that Vinicius Jr had sustained โ€œan injury to the biceps femoris in his left leg.โ€ While Spanish newspaper Marca reports that the player could be sidelined for around three weeks, Real Madrid has not commented on the severity of the injury.

Vinicius Jr took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to react to the news, writing: โ€œCrazy calendar. Time to recover.โ€

Real Madrid, currently 18th in the 36-team Champions League table, will travel to Anfield on Wednesday to face Liverpool, who top the table.

Meanwhile, Liverpool is also facing injury concerns. England right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold missed Sundayโ€™s 3-2 win at Southampton due to a hamstring injury sustained before the international break.

It remains uncertain whether he will be available for the match against the 15-time European Cup winners.
