OFFICIAL: Benzema out against Sevilla with muscle fatigue
Real Madrid have released a medical report announcing that attacker Karim Benzema has been suffering from muscle fatigue in his left thigh, a minor physical problem that will keep him out of the game against Sevilla on Saturday.
Benzema had to leave Friday’s practice with this minor problem, but he made the roster anyway. However, he was still in pain this Saturday morning and the player himself, along with the coaching and medical staff have decided to rule him out to avoid a serious injury.
