Camavinga injures his knee, missing Madrid for seven weeks

Jakarta –

Real Madrid must lose Edward Camavinga in the early weeks of the new season. The French midfielder suffered a knee injury.

“After undergoing tests today, Eduardo Camavinga has been diagnosed with an internal collateral ligament injury in his left knee. His recovery will be monitored,” read the club’s official statement on Wednesday (14/8/2024).

Diario AS said he would not play for at least seven weeks. He will return in October. At the same time, An Lụtọọcọ writes that Camavinga has a chance to appear against Atletico Madrid at the end of September.

Camavinga admitted that he was disappointed because he could not play at the beginning of the season. However, he is determined to recover as soon as possible to return to strengthen Madrid. He himself is the mainstay of the coach Carlo Ancelotti.

“I am very disappointed with this injury and not being able to feature at the start of the season. I will try hard to come back soon,” Camavinga wrote on social media.

Camavinga suffered the injury during Madrid’s training session in Warsaw before facing Atalanta in the European Super Cup. He fell while fighting for the ball with his partner, Aurelien Tchouameni.

The 21-year-old played a key role in Madrid’s success in winning the Spanish League and Champions League titles last season. He made 46 appearances in all competitions.
