Real Madrid forward, Gareth Bale, has been ruled out for up to three months with ankle injury.
The Wales international picked up the injury during their 2-1 win over Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League on Tuesday night and will miss next week’s El Clasico against Barcelona.
Scans have revealed Bale has damaged the peroneal tendon in his right ankle.
Madrid have confirmed the 27-year-old will undergo surgery next Tuesday at the King Edward VII Hospital in London.
“The Real Madrid Sanitas Medical Services have decided that Gareth Bale will undergo an operation following the traumatic dislocation of the peroneal tendons of his right ankle,” a statement released by Real Madrid on Thursday read.
“The operation will take place at King Edward VII Hospital in London on Tuesday 29th November by doctor James Calder, under the supervision of the club doctors Jesus Olmo and Mikel Aramberri.”
