Calf injury for Real's Altintop

Real Madrid midfielder Hamit Altintop looks set for a spell on the sidelines after suffering a calf injury. The Primera Division leaders did not put a timescale on a return for the 29-year-old Turkey international, who moved to the Spanish capital from Bayern Munich last summer. But a statement on club website www.realmadrid.es read: "After physical examination and tests at the Hospital Sanitas La Moraleja, Hamit Altintop has been diagnosed with a calf injury in the medial gastrocnemius of the left leg."
