The 25-year-old player is out of the match against Rio Ave this Saturday, for the Portuguese Championship. The length of his absence will depend on how he responds to treatment.

The Portuguese club has three more absences in midfield. Enzo Barrenechea, Nuno Félix, and João Veloso are also unavailable, which worries coach José Mourinho.

This season, Ríos has experienced moments of instability, but in recent matches, he has become more important to the Portuguese squad. The player has already made 37 appearances for Benfica, with three goals and three assists.
