Militão was substituted in the 30th minute of Real Madrid's LaLiga game against Osasuna on Saturday having to be stretchered off. He was replaced by Castilla graduate Raul Asencio. It's a crushing blow to Real Madrid's defense which already is without Dani Carvajal and David Alaba.
This is Militão's second torn ACL in as many seasons for Real Madrid. The first injury in his left knee occurred against Athletic Bilbao in Aug. 2023.
Militão wasn't the only player substituted through injury against Osasuna. Both Rodrygo and Lucas Vázquez also came off injured.
