Gironavs.Real Madrid

sportsmole.co.uk, 5 December 2024, 10:13
Real Madrid will be aiming to return to winning ways on Saturday night when they make the trip to Girona in La Liga.

Carlo Ancelotti's side will enter the match off the back of a 2-1 defeat at Athletic Bilbao, which proved to be their fourth loss in their last seven matches in all competitions during a difficult run.

Los Blancos remain second in the La Liga table, though, four points behind leaders Barcelona with a game in hand, so the reigning champions are still very much in the title picture heading towards the winter break.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their contest with Girona, who currently sit in eighth position in Spain's top flight.

Dani Carvajal

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: Unknown

Real Madrid will be without the services of Carvajal for the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign due to the severe knee injury that the right-back suffered in the clash with Villarreal on October 5.

David Alaba

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: January 9 (vs. Mallorca)

Alaba suffered an ACL injury last December, which has required two operations to fix; the defender has made progress in his recovery, though, and he is expected to be back on the field at the start of 2025.

Vinicius Junior

Status: Out

Type of injury: Muscle

Possible return date: December 14 (vs. Rayo Vallecano)

Vinicius has missed Real Madrid's last three matches due to a muscular problem; the Brazilian remains unavailable for selection for this match, but he could be back before the winter break in Spain.

Eder Militao

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: Unknown

Real Madrid will be without the services of Militao for the remainder of the campaign, as the Brazilian centre-back damaged his ACL during the clash with Osasuna before the international break.

Eduardo Camavinga

Status: Out

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: December 14 (vs. Rayo Vallecano)

Camavinga is still in the treatment room due to a hamstring problem, but the France international is in line to return before the winter break in Spain, most likely against Rayo Vallecano on December 14.
