Last night, Real Madrid continued their march towards the title, beating Athletic Bilbao at home (2-0). The Merengues now have nine days to prepare for the clash against Manchester City in the quarter-final of the Champions League. A meeting that Federico Valverde could miss. The 25-year-old midfielder was injured in the 80th minute of play yesterday, especially since he gave way to Eduardo Camavinga, who returned injured from the international break.
But as pointed out Relevo, there would be more fear than harm for the Uruguayan. The latter sat on the bench after his release, not being taken care of by the doctors. Carlo Ancelotti nevertheless left doubts lingering after the meeting: “Valverde took a hit. We now have two days of rest. He played his game, not with the intensity he usually has, but after the break it was a little more complicated., confided the Italian technician. The next few days will provide more information.
