Zidane sweats over another Real Madrid star, to undergo tests on Sunday to examine extent of injury

Real Madrid officials are reportedly disturbed over the fitness of defender Raphael Varane as Los Blancos are billed to face Chelsea next Wednesday in London.

The French star was withdrawn at half time in Los Blancos 2-0 La Liga win over Osasuna due to a leg injury with utility man Nacho Fernandez replacing him at centre back.

According to reports from Marca, he will undergo tests tomorrow to examine the extent of the injury, with an update expected in the next 24 hours.

Despite initial fears over his fitness to make the trip to Stamford Bridge, Zidane stated in his post match interview the change was a precaution with early indications hinting at a minor injury.

Captain Sergio Ramos is expected to return against Thomas Tuchel’s side after Zidane declined to risk him against Osasuna after over a month out of action.

Midfield star Fede Valverde is also expected to be cleared after undergoing a period of self-isolation following a positive test for Covid-19 last month.
