Real Madrid is finally regaining color after a series of injuries which had a major impact on its squad. Coming out in tears during the match against Osasuna (4-0 victory), Rodrygo suffered from a muscle injury in his thigh and his absence was initially estimated at between five and six weeks.
But against all expectations, the 23-year-old Brazilian striker resumed training with the ball on Monday, barely ten days after his injury.
A return for Liverpool?
According to Marcathis lightning recovery could allow Rodrygo to apply for the Champions League clash against Liverpool in nine days. However, his return to competition remains uncertain, with the Madrid staff remaining cautious about his physical condition.
One thing is certain, this news brings real relief to Carlo Ancelotti, whose team has been hit by a cascade of injuries since the start of the season, notably those of Eder Militao, Dani Carvajal, and Lucas Vázquez.
