MILITAO’S INJURY SETS BACK BRAZIL’S WORLD CUP PREPARATIONS

Date:

Real Madrid defender Eder Militao has been forced to withdraw from Brazil’s national team camp ahead of their crucial South American World Cup qualifying matches against Ecuador and Paraguay. The injury setback is a significant blow to the Brazilian squad, particularly considering Militao’s recent return from a long-term ACL injury.

Militao experienced discomfort in his right thigh following a training session on Wednesday. Subsequent medical examinations revealed a minor muscle injury, ruling him out of the upcoming international fixtures. The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) expressed their solidarity with Militao and wished him a swift recovery.

Militao’s absence adds to Real Madrid’s growing injury woes. Several other key players, including midfielders Aurelien Tchouameni and Ferland Mendy, have also been sidelined due to injuries sustained in recent matches. The club’s midfield is particularly depleted, with Eduardo Camavinga, Dani Ceballos, and Jude Bellingham also recovering from injuries. Additionally, defender David Alaba remains out with an ACL injury suffered last season.

The accumulation of injuries at Real Madrid has raised concerns about their ability to maintain their competitive form throughout the season. The club’s depth will be tested as they navigate a challenging fixture schedule both domestically and in Europe.
