Real Madrid is threatening to lose the efforts of two influential stars in the Liverpool campaign

The Spanish newspaper "AS" revealed that Real Madrid suffered from many injuries in its ranks, confirming that the team will miss two new stars in the second leg against Liverpool, next Wednesday, at Anfield, the Spanish right-back Lucas Vasquez and Uruguayan midfielder Fedi Valverde.

The newspaper said that the royal club suffers from a severe shortage of its ranks at a time when it needs all its stars before the decisive match against Liverpool in the second leg of the quarter-finals.

Lucas and Valverde were injured during Saturday's match against Barcelona in the "Clasico of Earth", which ended in Madrid 2-1, at the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium, in the 30th round of the Spanish League, as Lucas left the stadium in the 43rd minute after a strong interference with Barcelona player Sergio. Busquets felt pains in his right knee, while Valverde left limping in the 61st minute after feeling strong pains in the left foot.

The newspaper indicates that the expected absence of the two stars will increase the difficulty of the match for French coach Zinedine Zidane, as they will join a long list of injuries that previously hit captain Sergio Ramos and French Raphael Varane, and before them the Belgian star Eden Hazard.
