Taken out on a stretcher at the end of the La Liga match against Villarreal (2-0) on Saturday evening at the Santiago-Bernabeu stadium, Real Madrid right-back Dani Carvajal is injured in the cruciate ligaments of his right knee. The European champion confirmed the bad news overnight and will have surgery. A big problem for Real who will have to cope without their vice-captain for many months.
Carlo Ancelotti had good reason to be “sad and worried”. Because he will now have to cope without Dani Carvajal for several months and perhaps even until the end of the season. The Real Madrid full-back seriously injured his right knee at the end of the match of the 9th day of La Liga against Villarreal (2-0), Saturday evening at Santiago Bernabeu. An injury following a collision with his teammate Yeremy Pino (90th + 6). After writhing in pain on the pitch, the 32-year-old, vice-captain of Real, left in tears on a stretcher. What Carlo Ancelotti and the fans of the Merengue club feared was confirmed overnight.
“I can’t wait to start my rehabilitation and come back like a beast”
After having undergone medical examinations, Dani Carvajal announced the bad news himself on social networks: “A serious injury to the cruciate ligaments has been confirmed, wrote the Spaniard on his Instagram account. I will have to undergo surgery and to be out for a few months I can’t wait to start my rehab and get back like a beast. Thank you all so much for your messages. I feel very loved.
Vinicius also affected
Another source of concern for Real Madrid is Vinicius’ injury. Carlo Ancelotti also explained that the Brazilian striker, author of a sublime goal on Saturday evening, was injured in the neck and would undergo examinations tomorrow to find out the extent of his injury.
