Real Madrid's France international midfielder Eduardo Camavinga will be out until next season after suffering a serious groin injury in Wednesday's 1-0 win away to Getafe.
Camavinga replaced David Alaba at the start of the second half after the Austrian suffered a muscle injury, but in the 87th minute he was unable to continue and had to leave the pitch, even though Madrid had used all of its substitutes.
Speaking after the game, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti commented that both Alaba and Camavinga would struggle to be fit for Saturday's Copa del Rey final against FC Barcelona. However, tests carried out on Thursday morning showed Camavinga's injury to be much worse than previously thought.
"Following tests carried out today on Eduardo Camavinga, he has been diagnosed with a complete tear of the tendon in his left adductor muscle. His recovery will be assessed," read the club's medical report.
The injury means Camavinga will need an operation to repair the tear, with a recovery time of between three and four months.
That means he will miss the rest of the La Liga season, and the FIFA Cup World Cup, which kicks off on June 15. The versatile midfielder will also struggle to be fit for the start of the 2025-26 domestic campaign in Spain.
