Éder Militão picks up right thigh injury after Brazil match | OneFootball

The Brazilian defender Éder Militão, from Real Madrid, suffered an injury to the adductor muscle of his right thigh, the Spanish club revealed this Wednesday, without providing a recovery timeline. Militão was injured in the second half of the 1-1 draw between Brazil and Tunisia in a friendly match played on Tuesday in Lille, France.

In the first half, he had already felt pain but chose to continue playing. However, after the break, he asked to be substituted after making a pass to a teammate.

According to the Spanish press, the player will need about two weeks of recovery, which would rule him out of the matches against Elche and Girona in the Spanish Championship, as well as the clash against Olympiacos next Wednesday in the Champions League.

More Problems in the Medical Department

Militão joins Antonio Rüdiger and David Alaba in Real Madrid's medical department, who have been out for months due to physical issues and have no return date.

As a result, coach Xabi Alonso has only two defenders available for play, Raúl Asencio and Dean Huijsen, the latter apparently recovered from the pain that kept him out of the last Spanish national team call-up.
