Thibaut Courtois and Eder Militao will be out for a long time for Real Madrid. Arda Guler and Dani Ceballos are also hurt right now. But with only five days to go until El Clasico, Los Blancos have a big injury scare.
Real Madrid is in Portugal to play Braga in their third Champions League game of the season. They trained on Monday night to get ready for their Tuesday night game. But French playmaker Eduardo Camavinga did not finish training. Two medical staff members went with him to the locker room.
He put his hand on his right leg, but it’s not clear yet if the problem is with the muscles or the hit. Marca says Aurelien Tchouameni also left training early, but they don’t think he’s hurt.
Real Madrid would be smart to take all the necessary steps since their game against Barcelona is coming up quickly. This may only be a small issue, but Madrid fans will be nervously waiting for news until they know for sure.
At least Real Madrid has choices in the middle of the field. Toni Kroos, Fede Valverde, and Tchouameni all started against Sevilla over the weekend and are the most likely candidates to play in the three midfield spots. Luka Modric is also in the running.
