There was silence in the Bernabéu. Like few times. Militao fell badly in a jump and began to scream in pain. Hand to the right knee, heals it. It couldn’t be, not again. But it suggests that yes. His companions quickly demanded the entry of medical assistance, which confirmed the bad feelings in the first explorations. Something has happened. And it looks very bad. Militao began to cry and left on a stretcher, leaving an image that Chamartín froze. It’s the right knee, the good one. Tests coming soon.

Because his cruciate fracture was in his left knee. A particularly serious injury, as it also affected the meniscus. In total, he was off the playing field for 232 days.. A hell of seven months. He was injured on August 12, 2023, in San Mamés and returned on March 31, 2024, against Athletic, but at home. That was on the left knee, one that was treated with special care and that is fully recovered. This time it is the right knee.
Asencio entered
Medical sources consulted by AS point out that It is within sporting normality that, the year after a cruciate tear, there are injuries to the opposite leg. But they tend to be overloads or similar, the result of the athlete, unconsciously, tending to avoid supporting the injured leg and, therefore, forcing the good one. But it is profoundly bad luck that a serious injury occurs, as has happened to Military. The alert at Real Madrid, at the moment, is maximum. Asencio entered his place.
Alaba is not there yet
If the serious injury is confirmed, Ancelotti would be left with only one center back in the squad, Rüdiger. Well, Vallejo does not count (the situation is such that Asencio has just entered ahead) and the recovery of Alabadespite advancing at a good pace, still requires at least one more month. If not two. And it remains to be seen how he will feel when he starts to get into a sports rhythm. Last Thursday he touched the ball for the first time, 326 days after the break.. So thinking about having him for important games is a chimera.
Laporte Option
The situation would be dramatic in defense (as if that were not enough, Tchouameni will not be able to play for a month either). The club would be committed to the winter market, where the option of signing Laporte would continue to be a priority. It is the one you like the most, the one that fits the most. The player wants to leave Arabia, but his club does not accept any facilities for letting him go. They want money and Madrid, not to make large outlays. A dilemma that can change with the serious injury of Military. Very bad looking.
