🤕Blow for Madrid: Dani Carvajal set for surgery | OneFootball

Real Madrid CF has issued a medical report confirming that their captain, Dani Carvajal, will undergo surgery to treat an injury in his right knee.

After tests performed by the club’s Medical Services, the diagnosis reveals the presence of a "loose body" in the knee joint.

Arthroscopy on the Horizon

Due to this finding, the international right-back will undergo an arthroscopy, a minimally invasive procedure that will allow the removal of the tissue or bone fragment causing discomfort and functional impairment.

Although the club has not specified the exact length of his absence, this type of procedure usually requires significant recovery periods, which means Carvajal will miss the first team's upcoming fixtures in both La Liga and the UEFA Champions League, leaving a significant gap on the right side of the 'Casa Blanca' defensive lineup. The goal will be for the player to rejoin the team dynamic as soon as possible.
