Real Madrid received devastating news tonight regarding star defender Militao after their victory over Osasuna. He is expected to be sidelined for five months

close

Real Madrid is ahead 2-0 against Osasuna at halftime, but the match has been overshadowed by a series of injuries, leaving manager Carlo Ancelotti increasingly concerned.

While the score is in their favor, the focus shifted after three players were injured, with central defender Eder Militao suffering the most serious blow. Militao went down in the 26th minute, clutching his knee in obvious distress, reminiscent of teammate Dani Carvajal’s recent knee injury against Villarreal.

Militao’s injury appeared particularly worrying as he was unable to walk off the pitch, requiring a stretcher from the medical staff, indicating the possibility of a severe injury.

According to Relevo, there are fears that Militao may have torn his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) again. If confirmed, it would mark his second ACL injury in just 15 months, the first occurring in August 2023 against Athletic Club.

This would be a significant setback for both Militao and Real Madrid, especially given the team’s ongoing struggles with similar injuries. Since last season, six first-team players, including Militao, have suffered ACL injuries. Notable players affected include Thibaut Courtois, David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, and Joan Martinez, which has raised concerns about the team’s overall fitness and medical management.

Such an injury, if confirmed as another ACL tear, would likely mean a long recovery period, adding further pressure to Real Madrid’s already stretched defense.

The full extent of Militao’s injury will be determined through additional medical tests in the coming days, leaving fans and the club on edge. Losing Militao for an extended period would significantly weaken Real Madrid’s defensive strength and stability.

While the team is currently leading Osasuna, this injury is a troubling development that could have lasting effects on their season.
