Croatian international and Real Madrid midfielder, Luka Modrić, will be out of action for three months as he was injured in the European qualifier in Milan.

Luka Modrić was forced to leave the field at San Siro after 28 minutes. He felt muscular pain, and MRI scan in Madrid on Monday confirmed the seriousness of his injury.

Due to almost complete left upper thigh tear, Modrić was ruled out for the next three months. However, the surgery can be avoided and Croatian international will immediately start rehabilitation process.

Luka, get well soon!
