In recent times, Real Madrid players have frequently faced cruciate ligament injuries, which has caused considerable anxiety at the club, especially after Joan Martinez’s recent setback. When Camavinga experienced severe knee pain and cried out, his teammates were alarmed, and Ancelotti even threw his stopwatch in frustration.
Luckily, the French midfielder appears to have a robust physique. According to Jose Luis Sanchez, Camavinga will be sidelined for about 6 to 7 weeks due to a sprain in the inner collateral ligament of his knee. If another player had suffered a similar injury, it could have been more severe. The injury’s location on his left leg was fortuitous, as a similar issue on his right leg could have had even graver consequences, given his previous external collateral ligament tear.
Camavinga will need to recover carefully to avoid complications. The injury isn’t severe, so the recovery process is straightforward. With a strong midfield lineup and Tshuameni as the central pivot, the team remains secure. Camavinga is expected to miss the following games:
– Atlanta
– Real Mallorca
– Real Valladolid
– Las Palmas
– Real Betis
– Nations League with France
– Real Sociedad
– The first Champions League match
– Espanyol
– Alaves
