Real Madrid's pursuit of Fluminense striker Pedro Guilherme has suffered a blow.
The young forward had emerged as a €25m January target for the European champions.
However, the move is now likely to be off after Pedro suffered a serious knee injury. It's been confirmed he now faces surgery.
Pedro's surgeon will be Rodrigo Lasmar, who has also performed operations on PSG and Brazil star Neymar.
Pedro has been told he is unlikely to play for another six months.
