Nani was substituted before his Valencia team-mates held out to beat Real Madrid in LaLiga and the Portugal star has a thigh injury.
Valencia winger Nani has suffered an injury to his left thigh, the LaLiga club have confirmed.
The Portugal international was substituted six minutes before half-time during Wednesday's impressive 2-1 win over Real Madrid at the Mestalla.
In a statement on their official website, Los Che said the 30-year-old had sustained "a muscular injury in his left thigh".
