Real Madrid star set to miss remainder of season and the Club World Cup

The 2024/25 season has certainly not gone the way Madridistas would have hoped.

After being dumped out of the Champion's League by Mikel Arteta's Arsenal and sitting four points of the top of LaLiga, the club has announced that star midfielder Eduardo Camavinga is set to miss the remainder of the season.

In the 0-1 league victory over Getafe, the Frenchman did not return for the second half due to a leg injury.

On Thursday morning the club said in a statement:

" Following tests carried out today on our player Eduardo Camavinga by the Real Madrid Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with a complete rupture of the left adductor tendon. Pending evolution."

The midfielder has been plagued by injuries this season, which has not helped his case when trying to solidify his place in the starting eleven.

Camavinga has only started 11 games showing a clear drop off off from the 34 he managed last season.

Boss Carlo Ancelotti will have to find a way to fill the gap, with players like Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao missing out on participating in the competition in June too.

The midfielder has been key with his flexibility on the pitch, being able to play and cover multiple positions on the field. A rare profile that the Italian manager will unquestionably miss come June.

Although Madrid lost out on another Champions League title, they will aim to finish the season strongly still having the opportunity to win the Copa del Rey and LaLiga winning the league, which could come at the expenses of main rivals Barcelona, and the Club World Cup in the USA this summer.
