Carlo Ancelotti reveals Sergio Ramos injury

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti says that Sergio Ramos is suffering with "a minor back problem".

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has revealed that Sergio Ramos is suffering with "a minor back problem".

The Spanish centre-back picked up the injury before Saturday's 2-2 draw with Osasuna – a match that saw the defender dismissed for two bookable offences in the first period.

Madrid have appealed against the decision, while Ancelotti has confirmed that the 27-year-old will be fit to play against Valencia at the weekend.

"He has a minor back problem and had that problem in the warm-up before Osasuna. He demonstrated his sacrifice by playing," he told reporters at a press conference.

"I'm confident he'll be available for Sunday and if he doesn't play, it's not because of a physical problem."

Ramos has collected 18 red cards and 127 yellows during his eight-year Bernabeu career.
