Camavinga joins growing Real Madrid injury list
Real Madrid confirmed midfielder Eduardo Camavinga sustained a hamstring injury during its Champions League defeat to Liverpool.
Camavinga was replaced by Dani Ceballos in the 56th minute during the 2-0 loss at Anfield, and the club revealed he is expected to spend a period on the sidelines.
The Frenchman adds to Madrid's already extensive injury list, joining the likes of Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, David Alaba, Eder Militao, and Dani Carvajal on the injury table.
"Following tests carried out today on our player Eduardo Camavinga by the club’s Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with a muscle injury in the femoral biceps of his left leg," an official club statement read. "Pending evolution."
This growing list of absentees has raised serious concerns about the team’s depth and its ability to compete effectively both domestically and in the Champions League.
The loss against Liverpool has already left Madrid’s Champions League qualification hopes hanging in the balance, finding itself 24th in the new 36-team table after five games.
Carlo Ancelotti's side welcomes Getafe to the Bernabeu, hoping to close the gap to rival Barcelona - just four points ahead - at the summit of LaLiga.
