Rodriguez appeared to suffer the injury in the 26th minute of the first half of his team's 2-1 win over Sevilla in La Liga on Wednesday night. The Midfielder went off soon after and proceeded straight down the tunnel to the dressing room.

The Colombian was then taken to hospital where he had X-rays on the injured foot, which confirmed a break in the fifth metatarsal. He spent 45 minutes at the clinic, accompanied by his mother and another member of his family.

The report also confirmed Rodriguez was unable to put any weight on the foot, which was immobilised by the medical team. The player was in a wheelchair at all times.

The fracture requires surgery, which is expected to be performed early Thursday, and will keep him out for around two months.

Rodriguez 23' scored the opener for his side with a diving header in the 12th minute and the club went on to win the game 2-1.

His Teammate Sergio Ramos also left the game with an hamstring injury problem. Manager Carlo Ancelotti said " Sergio had a hamstring problem. We cannot evaluate it yet, we must wait for some days,".
