Luka Modric has "an injury to the back of his left thigh" Real Madrid said Friday, casting doubt on whether he will be fit to face Manchester City in their Champions League semi-final first leg match.
The Real statement gave no further details but Spanish media reported the 37-year old Croatian star will be out for about 10 days.
The Spanish cup final is on May 6 and the first leg of the Champions League semi-final against City is in Madrid on May 9.
Modric was replaced by French international midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni in the 63rd minute as Real lost 4-2 to Girona in LaLiga Tuesday.
"He had a minor injury in Girona and is unavailable," coach Carlo Ancelotti told a press conference Friday.
"We're waiting to see how he progresses and I don't know if he will make the cup final.
"Let's hope we have him back for the remaining games, which are important."
In LaLiga, Real face Almeria Saturday and visit Real Sociedad Tuesday before playing Osasuna in the Spanish cup final in Seville.
