Real Madrid confirmed that captain Dani Carvajal has suffered a fracture of the distal phalanx of the fifth toe on his right foot after medical tests carried out by the club's medical services.
The official statement did not set a specific recovery period, saying only that the player's progress will continue to be monitored.
According to Spanish media reports, Carvajal could be sidelined for around two weeks, a spell that may rule him out of several important matches in Real Madrid's final run of the season.
The setback comes at a difficult point for the team, with the final stretch of La Liga requiring depth and consistency amid a demanding schedule.
Carvajal's final return date will depend on his response to treatment over the coming days, while the coaching staff assesses the available options at right-back.
