The Brazilian had returned to the field against Getafe this Monday, after a month away due to tendinitis. The player came on in the 54th minute and, minutes later, fell on the side of the pitch, showing a lot of pain in his left knee. However, Rodrygo managed to finish the game, even while feeling discomfort.

With the injury, Arbeloa will have difficulty assembling Real Madrid’s attack for the match against Celta this Friday, since Mbappé is still injured and Mastantuono is suspended. Thus, only Vinícius Júnior and Gonzalo García remain available.
