In three days, two very serious injuries at Real Madrid and with the same diagnosis: rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in the left knee. On Thursday Thibaut Courtois suffered it in training and this Saturday, Éder Militão in San Mamés. The Brazilian central defender, like the goalkeeper, will undergo surgery in the coming days, according to the club, and his recovery time will last for at least six months. Two consecutive misfortunes on two fixed pieces in Carlo Ancelotti’s lineups.
The defense’s feelings were bad from the start. Militão came out to put pressure on Sancet early in the second half and his left knee broke. The gestures of pain set off the alarms and, although Ancelotti said in the press room that he suffered a sprained knee, he added that the problem “did not look good” and that everything was waiting for the tests this Sunday. In the end, rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament.
This is the most serious injury that the 25-year-old Brazilian central defender has suffered in his career, who since he was promoted to the non-negotiable category in the white defense, in the spring of 2021, has barely missed five games due to physical problems .
