In fact, the Brazilian, who continues to be the one who carries the attack of Real Madrid through his goals and his assists, will miss the most important deadline of the season for his team on Wednesday: the match at Anfield against to the best team in Europe at the start of the season.
“Following the examinations carried out today on our player Vinicius Junior by the Real Madrid medical services, he was diagnosed with an injury to the biceps femoris of the left leg. Awaiting progress,” the club communicated via its website .

For Vinicius, this is unfortunately not a new injury since he already suffered from it twice last season and at the same time of year in fact. According to the Spanish press, he will be absent for around 3 weeks and will lose the match at Anfield, a stadium which is very successful for him with Real Madrid.
