MADRID (AP) – Real Madrid left-back Ferland Mendy may miss the team’s next league game, and possibly more, after being substituted at halftime against Manchester City with an apparent injury, coach Alvaro Arbeloa said Wednesday.<\/p>\n

French player sent off midway through Madrid won 3-0<\/span> In a draw in the last 16 of the Champions League.<\/p>\n

“We don’t know what it is yet, but it doesn’t look good,” Arbeloa said.<\/p>\n

Mendy has been sidelined for much of the season since picking up a muscle injury in November, but returned for the full 90 minutes in last Friday’s league win over Celta Vigo.<\/p>\n

However, Arbeloa admitted it may have been too early to bring 30-year-old Mendy back.<\/p>\n

“It was a risk to give him two games after being out for so long, so I appreciate his effort,” Arbeloa told broadcaster Movistar. “It wasn’t ideal. I took that risk with him and I appreciate his performance.”<\/p>\n

Madrid host Elche in La Liga on Saturday before playing Manchester City in their Champions League return match on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
