This is good news for Real Madrid, as Kroos will be out for around two weeks, missing only the next two games against Real Valladolid and Levante. The upcoming FIFA break after those two matches will also give Kroos time to recover properly and be ready for what’s set to be an important month of October for Los Blancos.
Fede Valverde and Luka Modric will likely be the players replacing Kroos in Madrid’s starting lineup, with Casemiro being the defensive midfieldfer.
