Valencia midfielder David Albelda will be ruled out of action for two months with a knee problem, the Mediterranean club said on Monday. Albelda was forced to leave the pitch on Sunday during his side's 1-0 victory over Osasuna in the Spanish League after twisting ligaments in his right knee. The initial diagnosis was confirmed and Valencia confirmed through a statement on their website that Albelda will be sidelined for at least eight weeks. The 29-year-old international is the latest causality in Valencia's injury list that also includes Spanish internationals Ruben Baraja and Vicente. Valencia split the La Liga summit with Barcelona on 16 points each, with the Catalans leading on goal difference.
