Real Madrid on alert, star player suffers serious injury? (COPE) | OneFootball

Real Madrid is facing another unexpected setback within its squad. According to journalist Miguel Ángel Díaz from Cadena COPE, Rodrygo Goes is suffering from a serious knee injury.

The news broke today, causing concern in the offices of Valdebebas and among Álvaro Arbeloa’s coaching staff.

Although the club has not yet released an official statement with a definitive diagnosis, the initial examinations suggest a significant injury. The Brazilian, a key player in Real Madrid’s offensive system, finished the match against Getafe in pain.

The club’s medical team is conducting further tests to determine the exact extent of the injury and to estimate the recovery time. This setback comes at a crucial moment in the season, with a busy schedule.

Alert in Defense as Well

The already worrying situation with Rodrygo is compounded by a new issue in defense: David Alaba is suffering from a muscle tear in his calf. The Austrian central defender is doubtful for the next league match in Vigo, putting Álvaro Arbeloa in a delicate position.

If Raúl Asencio does not recover from his physical problems in time, Real Madrid could travel to Balaídos with only one first-team central defender available.
