Ancelotti: 'Carvajal out for a week'

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has played down suggestions that Dani Carvajal suffered a long-term injury in Saturday's 4-0 win over Granada.

The Spaniard was forced off the field during the La Liga fixture with a hamstring problem, but Ancelotti has said that the injury is "minor" and will keep the right-back out for just one week.

"Carvajal has a minor hamstring injury. It's not a serious problem and he'll be back in a week," he told reporters at a press conference.

Los Blancos face Liverpool in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.
