MADRID, March 6 (Xinhua) -- World-famed soccer idol David Beckham will be out for four to six weeks after damaging his lateral ligament of right knee in Real's Primera Liga tie last weekend.
The former England skipper's spokesman said Beckham suffered a strain to the ligament during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Getafe at the Bernabeu.
Beckham will miss the return leg of Real's Champions League last-16 tie against Bayern Munich and this Saturday's local game at arch-rivals Barcelona, as well as at least another four Primera Liga games.
The 31-year-old, who is leaving Real this summer for the MLS side LA Galaxy on a 250 million US dollars five-year-deal, could be available for the return leg of the Champions League quarterfinals if Real win over Bayern.
