Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior has hit out at UEFA after picking up an injury that rules him out of Wednesday night's Champions League clash at Liverpool.
The LaLiga champions have confirmed that Vinicius has a hamstring problem and will miss the next three weeks of action.
The Brazilian has now lashed out at the packed fixture list.
Vinicius took a full part in their 3-0 win against Leganes on Sunday but will not travel to Merseyside due to "an injury to the biceps femoris in his left leg."
In a message on social media, Vinicius pointed the finger of blame at executives behind a hectic fixture schedule that has most notably seen UEFA expand the Champions League by at least two matches, writing: "Crazy calendar. Time to recover."
Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti will also be without Lucas Vazquez and Aurelien Tchouameni for the match.
