Real Madrid, Isco to miss derby with Atletico Madrid due to acute appendicitis

Bad news at Real Madrid. It has now been officially announced: Spanish playmaker Isco must be operated on in the next few hours due to acute appendicitis. The talented footballer will then miss the next scheduled matches this week, during which los blancos will play Sevilla tomorrow and Atletico Madrid on Saturday. A tough blow for manager Julen Lopetegui, who is also anxious for Dani Carvajal: today he has not trained with the rest of the group.
