Clément Lenglet has suffered sprains to his left knee and ankle, according to tests carried out by the French centre-back after the match against Leganés.
He was forced to leave the match in the 64th minute due to accidental trauma received after Axel Witsel fell on his leg.
The ’15’ rojiblanco suffers from a grade I sprain of the internal collateral ligament of the left knee and a grade I/II sprain of the deltoid ligament of the left ankle.
The French defender will begin physical therapy and rehabilitation work and is awaiting further progress.
