The 25-year-old Navas has struggled to stay healthy this season with various injuries limiting him to only 15 games.

Fifth-place Sevilla is one point ahead of Athletic Bilbao and Atletico Madrid and two clear of Espanyol with seven games to play. The team is eight points behind fourth-place Villarreal and the final Champions League spot.

Navas is expected to miss matches against Real Madrid, Villarreal and Espanyol.
