Real Madrid is grappling with another injury blow as they gear up for the 2024/2025 season, similar to what happened with Thibaut Courtois in the previous season.
Shortly before their European Super Cup clash against Atalanta, Eduardo Camavinga sustained a left knee injury that will keep him out of the upcoming match and potentially for several weeks.
The severity of Camavinga’s injury seems less than what Courtois faced previously, yet it remains a setback for Real Madrid.
Let’s look at the details surrounding Camavinga’s injury.
Details of Eduardo Camavinga’s Injury
During Real Madrid’s final training session before the European Super Cup, Eduardo Camavinga suffered a knee injury following a collision with Aurelien Tchouameni.
Initial assessments ruled out a severe knee injury for Camavinga; however, persistent pain led to his exclusion from the Atalanta match.
The club confirmed on August 14 that he had sprained the internal collateral ligament in his left knee.
In Camavinga’s absence, Tchouameni is expected to fill the midfield role, with Luka Modric and Dani Ceballos as additional options.
The recovery timeline for a sprained knee typically ranges from three to six weeks.
