What is known about Mendy's injury and its impact on the Real Madrid team?

Real Madrid has confirmed that left-back Ferland Mendy has suffered a muscle injury to the hamstring of his right leg, after undergoing several medical tests. Although the club did not specify the duration of his absence, sources in the press suggest that Mendy will not be available for the Champions League return match against Manchester City, scheduled for next Tuesday at 22:00. He is also uncertain for the La Liga match against Atletico Madrid on March 22.

Mendy had a solid performance in the previous match against Celta Vigo, but he was only used for 45 minutes in the clash with the 'Celts'. Alvaro Arbeloa, a former player of the team, stated that the injury does not look good at all, but he appreciated Mendy's effort. In his absence, Alvaro Carreras, usually a starter in the same position, could return to the team after also being injured.
