It compounds a miserable night for Varane, who was at fault for both Valencia's goals as his side spurned the chance to stretch their lead at the top of LaLiga.
Further tests on Thursday
The 23-year-old France international is to have a scan back in Madrid on Thursday to ascertain the exact extent of the problem.
