MADRID, April 20 (Xinhua) -- Real Madrid right back Alvaro Odriozola is expected to miss the last six games of the season after a shoulder fracture.

The 24-year-old Spanish broke his left collarbone during the team training on Friday and would be out of action for the remainder of the season.

Madrid confirmed the injury but did not say how long Odriozola's recovery would take. It is estimated at least a month is needed for this type of shoulder fracture.

The club has six games remained in the season, the final against Real Betis on May 19.

Real Madrid currently sit third in the league standings, four points adrift of their neighbors Atletico Madrid in second and 13 points behind leaders Barcelona.
