Double injury blow strikes Real Madrid

Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos and fullback Ferland Mendy will both be sidelined due to injuries.

Ceballos is expected to miss the next 6-8 weeks with an ankle sprain, which he suffered during last night's 2-0 win against Real Betis.

Meanwhile, Mendy has pulled out of France's squad this week with a leg strain.

The fullback is expected to be available for Real after the international break.
