Madrid, Aug 11 (AP) Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos returned from the Tokyo Olympics with a serious ankle injury, the team said Tuesday.
The club said tests showed a "complete tear" of ligaments. He injured his left ankle during Spain's first match at the Olympic Games but stayed with the squad, which won the silver medal after losing the final to Brazil.
Madrid said Ceballos' recovery "will continue to be assessed," but similar injuries usually sideline players for several weeks.
Madrid makes its Spanish league debut on Saturday at Alavés.
