While it was first reported that Modric could miss from 3 to 5 weeks of action with Real Madrid, now a Croatian spokesman confirmed that Ancelotti will have to do without the midfielder for the next three weeks. While this isn't critical, it's still true that Real Madrid will need to nurse this injury in order to avoid setbacks, so Modric might be sitting out for a bit longer than that.
Modric left Croatia's game against Italy with a suspected groin injury that has now been confirmed as a groin strain, according to FIFA.com's report.
