Real Madrid has confirmed a significant injury setback as the 2024/2025 season approaches. The club announced through its official channels that Eduardo Camavinga has suffered a sprain of the internal collateral ligament in his left knee, following tests conducted recently. The statement did not specify a definitive timeline for his recovery, but reports suggest he could be sidelined for approximately six to seven weeks.
While the injury is considered serious, it is noted that it could have been more severe. This development poses a challenge for head coach Carlo Ancelotti, who may have to navigate without Camavinga until after the October international break. The absence is expected to see Camavinga miss a total of 12 games, including the UEFA Super Cup final against Atalanta and several league and Champions League fixtures.
