Camavinga joins Vinicius and Rodrygo on Real Madrid injury list

Real Madrid have confirmed that midfielder Eduardo Camavinga has suffered a hamstring injury during the Champions League defeat to Liverpool.

Camavinga was replaced by Dani Ceballos in the 56th minute during Wednesday's 2-0 defeat at Anfield, with the club announcing he is expected to spend a spell on the sidelines.

The Frenchman adds to Madrid's already extensive injury list, joining the likes of Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, David Alaba, Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal on the injury list.

An official club statement read: “Following tests carried out today on our player Eduardo Camavinga by the club's medical service, he has been diagnosed with a muscle injury in the femoral biceps of his left leg. Awaiting evolution.”

This growing list of absentees has raised serious concerns about the depth of the team and their ability to compete effectively, both domestically and in the Champions League.

The defeat to Liverpool has already put Madrid's hopes of Champions League qualification in jeopardy, leaving them 24th in the new 36-team rankings after five games.

Carlo Ancelotti's side welcome Getafe to the Bernabeu this Sunday, hoping to close the gap on rivals Barcelona at the top of the LaLiga table, who are just four points ahead, while Madrid have played a game less.
