Isco to undergo Appendicitis surgery
He will not travel to face Sevilla and might not feature against Atletico Madrid either.
Real Madrid ace Isco is set to undergo an operation due to appendicitis. Los Blancos confirmed that the midfielder will miss the league clash against Sevilla and most likely the home Madrid Derby as well.
The Spain international will undergo an operation due to the problem as confirmed by the club. Losing Isco to injury is a big blow for the team. In their past four visits to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, Real have incurred three defeats. The statement on the club's website read: "After the tests performed on our player Isco, he was diagnosed with acute appendicitis. The player will be operated on in the next hours."

New manager Julen Lopetegui has directed the team well in his debut season at the club, winning four and drawing one of their opening five games. Isco has been impressive in these opening games, netting the crucial equaliser in the 1-1 draw with Athletic Bilbao on September 15.
