Real Madrid has been dealt yet another massive injury blow this season leaving many fans wondering, when will the bad luck come to an end.
ESPN has reported that Real Madrid superstar Vinicius Jr. suffered an injury to his left hamstring and is set to be sidelined for between three to four weeks.
Vinicius suffered the injury in Real Madrid’s 3-0 victory against Leganes on Sunday, where he played a full 90 minutes after returning from the international break with Brazil just three days prior.
The injury to Vinicius is the last thing Real Madrid can afford at the moment. The squad is already littered with injuries to other key players, and adding Vinicius to the injury list is a worst-case scenario.
The attack was already thin with the injury to Rodrygo, and now with Vinicius being sidelined that leaves Kylian Mbappe and Endrick as the only fit attackers in the first-team squad.
Vinicius took to social media after his medical diagnosis, calling the soccer calendar “crazy”. Real Madrid is playing a game every three to four days, which puts the players at risk of injury.
Real Madrid’s next match is a massive Champions League clash with Liverpool on Nov. 27, where head coach Carlo Ancelotti will have to put out a makeshift lineup to cope with all the injuries currently on his plate.
