Vinicius Jr’s injury situation: A big loss for Real Madrid

The rupture of the biceps femoris with involvement of the distal tendon occurred in the left leg of Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr. The Brazilian player underwent an MRI and his injury was confirmed, which will keep him out for about two and a half months of the playing fields.

It is almost certain that the player, who said goodbye to 2023 with the injury he suffered in the Brazilian National Team, will miss the Spanish Super Cup. The Real Madrid winger was injured in the match against Colombia after a strong challenge forced him to leave the field before half an hour.

“SAME AS THE PREVIOUS INJURY”

The symptoms were not encouraging and it was the player himself who set off all the alarms in the mixed zone after the match against the Colombian team:

“I think it’s the same injury as last time. “I got hit there and I was a little bit resentful later.”

We must not forget that the injury mentioned by Vinicius was the one he suffered against Celta in Balaídos on August 25, which kept him out for a month. So the injury was in the right leg, not the left like now.

WILL RETURN TO MADRID

After the first examination in Brazil, the doctors confirmed that the player had an injury to his left hamstring and that it was best to return to Madrid.

NUMBER OF INJURIES INCREASED TO 9

To the long-term absences from the Madrid infirmary Thibaut Courtois and Eder Militao due to knee injuries, the muscle problems of Kepa Arrizabalaga, Arda Güler and Dani Ceballos, the fracture of a toe of Aurelien Tchouameni, the dislocation of Jude’s shoulder Bellingham and other problems for Camavinga and Vinicius That punished Carlo Ancelotti’s outlook for future games.
