The tests Brahim Díaz underwent on Sunday morning at Real Madrid City have confirmed the muscle injury he has suffered in his right abductor, which will keep him out of action for a period of around three months. Real Madrid have confirmed the bad news in a medical report. “Following the tests carried out today on our player Brahim Díaz by the Real Madrid medical services, he has been diagnosed with an injury to the long abductor of his right leg. Pending development,” the club said.
Brahim felt the muscle injury in the first half of the match against Real Sociedad, in which he was enjoying his second start of the season, in a move in which he linked up with Kylian Mbappé. He tried to stay in the match for several minutes, but at 25 he had to be replaced by the Brazilian Rodrygo Goes.
The MRI he underwent a few hours later confirmed the worst of the prognoses and revealed that the fracture was more serious.
Brahim had just played two games with Morocco and adds to the plague of injuries that Real Madrid is suffering at the start of the season. He joins David Alaba, Eduardo Camavinga and Dani Ceballos in the infirmary, increasing to four the confirmed absences that Carlo Ancelotti will suffer for the first Champions League match against Stuttgart next Tuesday. Jude Bellingham and Aurélien Tchouaméni are about to come off the bench, while the medical examination carried out on Éder Militao confirms that he is suffering from “minor discomfort in his right leg”, but no problems with the operated knee.
