Real Madrid to be without key player for crucial Champions League clash against Atalanta

Real Madrid can't seem to catch a break when it comes to injuries. On Saturday it was confirmed that Rodrygo Goes was the latest player to be knocked down after suffering a muscle problem in his leg. As a result, he will miss Girona, although it appears his absence could last even longer.

According to Relevo, it is almost certain that Rodrygo will also be unavailable for Tuesday's crucial Champions League match against Atalanta. The most likely scenario is that he can return for next weekend's visit to Rayo Vallecano, but if it is more serious he could end up being out until the following week when Real Madrid take on Sevilla in their final match before the winter break.

It is a big blow for Real Madrid to have to do without Rodrygo against Atalanta, as it is a match where a lot can be won given their situation in the Champions League. However, a positive sign is that Vinicius Junior should return for the trip to Bergamo.
