The Whites have been finding it hard to cope with the number of injuries it is currently dealing with, and this has affected the form and morale of the team. The situation at the Spanish capital has deteriorated so quickly that Real Madrid were left with just 12 men from their first-team squad for the Primera Division match against Getafe.
To make matters worse, in the coming weeks or so Zinedine Zidane’s side are scheduled to face quality opposition like Valencia, Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid. Additionally, two matches against Atalanta are lined-up in the UEFA Champions League. The business end of the season is approaching, and Real Madrid are barely being able to put together a team of eleven players.
These are worrying signs for all the Santiago Bernabeu faithful, and The 4th Official gives you an insight into the condition of these players at the medical bay at the Valdebebas training complex.
Real Madrid Injury News
Real Madrid Injury News
Sergio Ramos
The defender has already undergone surgery for his knee troubles which prevented him from playing for the next two months or so. The Real Madrid captain is being missed at the back, and the earliest the Whites would be able to see their leader once again would be around April. If Madrid can beat Atalanta in this round of the competition, Ramos could feature in the quarter-finals.
Eden Hazard
Eden Hazard’s left thigh injury at the start of the month has once again sidelined him from action for as long as four weeks. The Belgian has barely featured for Real Madrid this season with only 13 appearances to his credit. His consistency with picking up injuries as well as being diagnosed with the coronavirus has reduced his game time at the Spanish capital. Hazard should be back in the fold before Madrid play host to Atalanta in the Champions League.
Rodrygo
The Brazilian suffered a hamstring injury against Granada back in December 2020 and is expected to make his return just around the same time as Sergio Ramos. However, there are positives on his road to injury already as he was recently snapped at the Valdebebas Training Center.
Federico Valverde
After being missing from action for the Whites last four fixtures, Federico Valverde is all set to make his return to the team following an injury in the groin region. Valverde could be a part of the match-day squad against Valencia this coming weekend.
Dani Carvajal
It is understood that Carvajal has picked up an injury at the start of January. The player has missed six matches due to injury and his time of return is not known.
Lucas Vasquez
Lucas Vasquez is currently nursing some muscular problems. The Spaniard has been kept out of action for three matches already and should be making a return to the team in the coming days.
Alvaro Odriozola
The right-back has seemingly picked up an injury in his hamstring muscle. The return date of Odriozola is unknown at the moment, and an update should be made available by Real Madrid in the coming days.
