Real Madrid's Brazilian international has an injury to the biceps femoris of his left leg
The alarm is ringing again at Real Madrid, due to a new injury in the squad, now even more affecting Vinícius Júnior.
The Brazilian international is suffering from an injury to the biceps femoris of his left leg, according to the clinical report released by the Merengue emblem. The note does not indicate the expected downtime, but the Spanish press says it will be around a month.
The player himself has already commented on the injury on social media, pointing out the culprit: “The crazy schedule……… recovering!”
Vinícius Júnior played 90 minutes in Real Madrid's victory at Leganés, this Sunday. It was the third complete game in the space of ten days, as he had previously been full-time in the Brazilian team's commitments, against Venezuela (away) and Uruguay (home).
The striker is expected to miss games against Liverpool, Getafe, Athletic, Girona, Atalanta and Rayo Vallecano. Real Madrid's expectation is that they will be able to play in the Intercontinental Cup final, in Qatar, on December 18th (opponent still to be determined).
The Merengue team has 18 games in the current season and Vinícius Júnior participated in all of them. He just didn't start in the sixth round of the League, against Espanyol (he played 35 minutes, and also scored a goal and an assist). He has played 1523 minutes on the field, out of a total of 1620.
