Deportivo´s Luis out to end of season

MADRID (AFP) - Deportivo La Coruna's Brazilian international Filipe Luis will miss the remainder of the season after suffering a serious ankle injury in a 3-1 home win over Athletic Bilbao, the club said Sunday.

Luis scored the opener in Saturday's game on 49 minutes but injured his ankle as he collided with goalkeeper Gorka Iraizoz and was stretchered off as his side went on to record a win that put Depor fourth, a point above Sevilla and Real Mallorca.

Luis, 24 and a summer target for Barcelona, was an ever-present last season and had not missed a game this season but will now be out for "four to six months", his club said.
