Real Madrid forward Vinicius Junior and defender Lucas Vazquez are set to miss the club’s final La Liga matches of the season with injuries.

Reigning champions Madrid lost against La Liga leaders Barcelona on Sunday to fall seven points behind the Catalans with three matches remaining, virtually ensuring they will finish the season without a major trophy.

The Brazilian football federation announced that the Italian will take the reins of the Brazil national team at the end of the season.
