Real Madrid faces yet another setback with the last-minute withdrawal of Rodrygo Goes, who will miss the LaLiga match against Girona in the Estadio Montilivi. The Brazilian forward is experiencing muscle discomfort in his left leg and will undergo medical tests to determine the exact severity of the injury.

Rodrygo’s Recent Injury History

Rodrygo had only recently returned to action after recovering from a muscle injury. He featured against Getafe and started in San Mamés, playing two matches in the span of three days.

This latest setback involves the same left leg that sidelined him with a rectus femoris injury sustained on November 9 during a game against Osasuna, which kept him out for three weeks.

Ancelotti’s Growing Injury List

Rodrygo joins an already extensive list of absentees, including:

• Vinícius Jr.
• David Alaba
• Eduardo Camavinga
• Dani Carvajal
• Éder Militão

Additionally, Castilla players Gonzalo García and Chema Andrés, who picked up injuries in their match against Real Murcia, are also unavailable.

Youth Player Steps In

To address the depleted squad, Carlo Ancelotti has called up Daniel Yáñez, a young winger, to travel with the first team. Yáñez will be on the bench in Montilivi as Real Madrid looks to navigate this injury crisis by turning to its youth system.
