Real Madrid defender Dani Carvajal confirmed he suffered a "serious cruciate ligament injury" in his team's 2-0 LaLiga win over Villarreal on Saturday.
The Spain international was stretchered off in obvious distress in added time at the end of the second half after injuring his knee when going to play the ball upfield and colliding with Villarreal winger Yeremy Pino.
Carvajal later posted on Instagram confirming the nature of the knee injury, adding that he would need to have surgery and be out of action for several months.
