"Real" Madrid announced that striker Karim Benzema will be unable to play for some time due to an injury. Examinations revealed that the Frenchman injured his Achilles tendon. It is believed that the 28-year-old footballer will miss at least three upcoming matches of the "Royal" club. Therefore, we will not see him in the UEFA Champions League clash against "Roma" and in the Spanish league matches against Valencia's "Levante" and Vigo's "Celta". For "Real" Madrid, who are clinging to the silver medals in "La Liga", this is a serious loss, as the team is currently four points behind the city rivals "Atletico", and fourth-placed "Villarreal" is just two points away. Benzema's statistics this season are truly impressive - in all competitions, he scored 23 goals and provided 3 assists in 25 games."
