The “FIFA virus” has struck Real Madrid again. The international truce has indeed left its mark on the staff of the White House, whose infirmary has become a little more full. After Eduardo Camavinga, who had to leave the France team before the match in Azerbaijan due to muscle discomfort in his thigh, another player returned injured from his selection.

Tuesday evening, on the lawn of the Pierre-Mauroy stadium in Lille, Eder Militao did not go to the end of the friendly match between Brazil and Tunisia (1-1). Established in the center by Carlo Ancelotti, alongside Marquinhos, the Auriverde defender had to leave his teammates at the hour mark, replaced by Fabricio Bruno (60e), due to a physical glitch which will immobilize him.

Real Madrid deprived of Eder Militao

The Merengue club has delivered a first diagnosis concerning him and it is not good. “After the examinations carried out today by the Real Madrid medical service, our player Eder Militao was diagnosed with a muscle injury in the adductor magnus of his right leg. His condition will be re-evaluated soon”he indicates. A two-week absence is to be feared.

The Brazilian international will therefore miss at least the Madrilenians’ next three trips, to Elche on Sunday evening in La Liga (9 p.m.), to Olympiakos three days later in the Champions League (9 p.m.) and to Girona the following weekend in the league (9 p.m.). He could find the group against Athletic Bilbao (December 3) or Celta Vigo (December 7).
