At halftime of Saturday’s 1-3 win on the road at Athletic Bilbao Adriano was replaced by Maxwell after complaining about pain in his right thigh. The injury believed to have occurred due to the lack of footing on the Sam Memés pitch which looked to be a swamped as rain fell nonstop during the match.

Adriano underwent numerous tests following the injury and doctors have confirmed the thigh injury and have sidelined him for Wednesday’s Champions League match on the road at Rubin Kazan.

The Brazilian international will be reevaluated later in the week and a decision will be made whether or not he will be available for Sunday’s match against Mallorca.
