Real Betis playmaker Isco has suffered a second leg fracture, the club confirmed on Sunday via social media. The 33-year-old former Real Madrid star sustained the injury during a friendly match against Malaga on Saturday.

After his return to action last December, Isco played a key role in helping Betis secure a sixth-place finish in La Liga, which earned them qualification for the Europa League. He also captained the side in the Europa Conference League final, where they were defeated 4-1 by Chelsea.

Isco’s strong performances last season led to his first call-up to the Spanish national team since 2019. He featured as a substitute in the Nations League final and scored in the penalty shootout loss to Portugal.
