In the second half of Real Madrid’s 2-0 UEFA Champions League loss to Liverpool, the 22-year-old French defender was substituted out. He is the most recent member of the team to sustain an injury. The most recent member of Real Madrid’s first team to sustain an injury was midfielder Eduardo Camavinga. He hobbles off the field as Los Blancos loses to Liverpool 2-0 in the Champions League.

While pursuing Curtis Jones of the other team at Anfield, the 22-year-old defender stumbled and collapsed onto the grass. With the assistance of a member of the medical staff, he then cautiously left the field.

Carlo Ancelotti’s first team players have already sustained numerous injuries this season. Brazilian forwards Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior won’t be able to play for the European champions until at least mid-December, and defenders Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal suffered injuries in the past month that will terminate their seasons.

Camavinga’s prolonged absence following tonight’s match will be detrimental to Real Madrid once more this season. Vinicius Junior launched a barely disguised jab at football’s dominating physique on social media this week. After his injury was announced by his club, he posted on X about the “crazy calendar.”

On December 22, Real Madrid will play seven games in 21 days before the start of the two-week winter break. Sunday afternoon’s La Liga opener against Getafe, a squad from the same city, will take place at home. During this period, Ancelotti will be praying that his team stays healthy and doesn’t sustain any more serious injuries before the end of December.

With one game remaining, the squad is now four points behind Barcelona in second place in La Liga. However, they have now lost three of their five Champions League games this season, including tonight’s loss to Liverpool. As a result, the reigning European champions are currently one spot ahead of the departing teams in the league phase rankings, at number 24.
