After the medical tests on Luka Modric in Hospital Sanitas La Moraleja by Real Madrid's medical staff, he has been diagnosed with a sprained collateral ligament on his right knee. Pending progress of evaluation.

Expect Modric to miss 5-6 weeks, just like the initial report said. This is definitely a huge blow for Real Madrid's title chances this season, as Luka Modric was a key player in this system that Carlo Ancelotti couldn't afford to lose again. Modric, who arguably was the world's best midfielder in 2014, has had two big injuries this 2014-2015 season.
