The Spanish full-back suffered a shock during a duel with an opposing player. He was subsequently evacuated on a stretcher.
After the match, the Spanish European champion communicated on his social networks about his injury. The Madrid number 2 announced that he was the victim of a cruciate ligament rupture. An injury which ends his 2024-2025 season.
“A serious cruciate ligament injury is confirmed, I will have to have an operation and be absent from the playing fields for a few months. I’m already looking forward to starting recovery and coming back like a beast. Thank you very much for your messages, I feel very loved,” he declared on his Twitter account (X).
Lucas Vasquez to replace him in the right lane
Dani Carvajal’s injury is a real blow for Carlo Ancelotti and Real Madrid. The Spaniard was playing at his best level and was one of the leaders of this squad. Faced with this absence, the Italian manager should position Lucas Vasquez as a right back during the club’s next outings. Unless he decides to reposition Eder Militao in this position.
