Real Madrid confirms defender’s thigh injury as crisis worsens

Real Madrid can’t seem to catch a break when it comes to injuries. They already have players like Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao and Eduardo Camavinga offside, and on Saturday they suffered three more blows.

Before the match against Girona began, Real Madrid confirmed that Rodrygo Goes was suffering from muscle discomfort. At Montilivi, Jude Bellingham received a knock (although he is expected to recover), while the most worrying problem was suffered by Ferland Mendy, who was also sent off in the second half.

Real Madrid has already confirmed that Mendy suffered a quadriceps injury, for which his recovery time is currently unknown. However, he will almost certainly miss Tuesday’s game against Atalanta.

It’s another defensive injury for Real Madrid, although Carlo Ancelotti can relax in the sense that he has a ready-made replacement in Fran García (who has arguably been better than Mendy this season). However, it is another blow.
