According to Real Madrid’s official announcement, center defender Alaba has torn the cruciate ligament in his left knee and is confirmed to be out for the season.
This is Real Madrid's third ACL injury this season. Courtois and Militao have suffered one after another at the beginning of the season. It is expected that the two will return at the end of the second half, which is actually no different from being reimbursed for the season.
The defense suffered another heavy blow, and Real Madrid's top management also changed their previous rhetoric of "being satisfied with the current lineup and having no signing plans in the winter window." According to statistics, Real Madrid has suffered a total of 20 injuries this season. It is very scary to reach this number before the end of the half. In addition to personal reasons and luck, large-scale injuries are directly related to the thin lineup.
Currently, there are 23 players in the Bernabeu first team, but they lack strong substitutes in many positions such as the front three, central defenders and left and right fullbacks. Among them, Rudiger's playing time in the team reached a maximum of 1859 minutes. Coupled with the national team competition, Real Madrid players are overburdened, which is the direct cause of frequent injuries.
Reinforcement in the winter window is a must, but at this time it is difficult to buy players who meet the young and talented transfer policy. Inacio of the Portuguese Super League giant Sporting CP is the favorite on the list, but Real Madrid does not seem to be very interested in him. Even if Militao was injured, they did not take any substantive action to allow him to renew his contract with Sporting CP, and the termination fee was also increased from 45 million. Soared to 60 million euros.
According to the latest news from Spanish Channel 6 reporter Edu Aguirre, Real Madrid is internally discussing the recall of young player Rafa Marin.
recalls the youngster, I have to say this is very Real Madrid. Since the Hazard deal failed, Real Madrid have been very cautious about transfers. This summer, when Benzema left the team, he signed the old player Joselu. There was a shortage of midfielders and wingers and Dias was re-signed. It is not surprising that there is a shortage of central defenders to continue to sign players back from Castilla.
Marin was promoted to the first team in July 2023, but he did not stay at the Bernabeu but was immediately loaned to Alaves. This season, he played 9 times in the league, started 4 times as a substitute, and played a total of 813 minutes on the defensive end. Each contributed 0.5 steals, 0.7 interceptions and 2.9 clearances.
Faced with this once-in-a-century wave of injuries, Real Madrid fans have to believe in the existence of metaphysics. Although Hazard did not play football when he played, he rarely encountered injuries in the team. Fans also called him "the big player". Priest" called for a return to Real Madrid.
