Eder Militão Faces Career Threatening Injury on the Field
- Eder Militão was carried off the pitch after sustaining what appears to be a serious injury.
- He had previously battled a significant knee injury that kept him out of most of the last season.
- The situation has left fans and the team concerned about the defender's future and the team's defensive stability.
During a home match against Osasuna on Saturday, November 9, 2024, Eder Militão, a defender for Real Madrid, left the field on a stretcher due to a serious leg injury. In the first half of the game, he fell to the ground in the opponent's area while clutching the back of his right knee. This incident raised immediate concerns about the severity of the injury. Previously, Militão had missed most of last season after tearing his left ACL in the season opener. His recovery, which allowed him to contribute to Real Madrid's triumph in both the UEFA Champions League and La Liga titles, was a significant aspect of his career. The club and its fans are anxious about the potential implications of this new injury. Additionally, earlier in the game, teammate Rodrygo also sustained an injury and required ice treatment on his left leg. This series of injuries could impact the team’s performance in the ongoing season and raise questions about their depth in the defensive lineup.
