Real Madrid has experienced a bit of an injury crisis in the early La Liga games, but they are beginning to consider when players might be available once more.

ACL injuries to Eder Militao and Thibaut Courtois have rendered them permanently unable. If all goes well, Dani Ceballos and Ferland Mendy will make a comeback after the international break after missing their 2-1 victory against Getafe last weekend.

MD claims that Arda Guler has already decided when he will return. Guler had meniscus surgery three weeks ago and hopes to return in less than three weeks for the Madrid derby, just like Vinicius. On either the 23rd or 24th of this month, Atletico Madrid visits Los Blancos.

However, according to Managing Madrid, the team wants to take its time with Guler. According to them, the club is being cautious with the 18-year-old and would be happy to hold off on his comeback until after the second international break in October.

When combined with the two-week vacation following the Madrid derby, it would put him out of action until a trip to Sevilla on the 21st or 22nd of October.

Guler will have demonstrated his eagerness to participate to Real Madrid by assimilating to training at Valdebebas like a duck to water. However, because Guler is still so young, they will be desperate to avoid doing anything that might have long-term ramifications on him.
