REAL MADRID return to La Liga action this weekend when they face Mallorca.
Carlo Ancelotti's Real thrashed Celtic 3-0 as they began their defence of their Champions League trophy in the week – but the win came at a cost.
Striker Karim Benzema faces three weeks out with a thigh injury, after being forced off in the 30th minute of the Parkhead victory.
The club said in a statement: "Following tests carried out on our player Karim Benzema by the Real Madrid Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with an injury to the semitendinosus tendon and a strain to the quadricep muscle in his right thigh.
"His recovery will continue to be assessed."
