Real Madrid have lost captain Dani Carvajal for the week.

The fullback has suffered a leg strain which will keep him sidelined potentially for a fortnight.

Carvajal is out of tonight's Champions League opener against Union Berlin and also for the derby at Atletico Madrid on Sunday.

Carvajal is expected to be replaced by fellow veteran Lucas Vazquez at right-back.

However, coach Carlo Ancelotti has also employed Eduardo Camavinga in the role at times over the past year.
