Real Madrid Injury to the soleus muscle in his right leg

While we're still waiting for tests this Tuesday to confirm the full extent of the injury to Gareth Bale, initial investigations suggest that the Wales international will be out for three weeks, meaning he would miss the games against Betis, Espanyol and Granada.

The Real forward picked up the injury against Sporting, and he needed to be replaced at half time. As was presumed from how he initially responded to the injury, Bale has an injury to the soleus muscle in his right leg. The aim now is for him to make a full recovery in time for the first leg of the Champions League tie between 'Los Blancos' and Roma.
