Sergio Ramos is expected to miss Real Madrid's La Liga fixture with Levante this weekend as the Spaniard recovers from a calf injury.
The centre-back was ruled out of the latest Spain squad with the complaint, but it had been thought that the 28-year-old would return for his club.
However, according to Football Espana, club doctors have advised that the defender should remain on the sidelines for at least the next week.
As a result, Ramos could be rested this weekend in preparation for next week's Champions League clash with Liverpool.
Three days after the Liverpool clash, Los Blancos welcome Barcelona in La Liga.
