On the first day of La Liga against Athletic Bilbao, Real Madrid suffered a first blow with the serious injury of Éder Militão. Following poor support, the Brazilian defender was forced out with an injury. The day after the Merengues’ victory, the diagnosis was made and the Auriverde international (30 caps, 2 goals), victim of a ruptured cruciate ligament, found himself away from the field for several months, with a mandatory stint on billiards. .
This Friday morning, Relevo gave news of the 25-year-old player. Successfully operated on on August 17, the former FC Porto player has since spared no effort and works daily at home and in Valdebebas to recover as quickly as possible. According to estimates from the Spanish media, Éder Militão should resume individual work on the field during the month of December before returning to collective training in 2024. A good omen for Real Madrid who never had the intention of compensate for the long-term absence of his defender, banking instead on an express recovery.
