The Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior is nearing full recovery and could make his return to the field as early as January, as Marca reported.
It's anticipated that the player might feature in the Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Atletico Madrid scheduled for January 10th. The medical staff at Real Madrid currently deems the player nearly recovered.
Initially expected to be out for at least two months, Vinicius sustained a knee tendon injury back in November while playing for the Brazilian national team against Colombia (1-2) in the World Cup 2026 qualifiers.
This season, Real Madrid has grappled with a notable injury crisis. Presently, alongside Vinicius, the club's injury list includes seven other players: Ferland Mendy, David Alaba, Eder Militao, Thibaut Courtois, Dani Carvajal, Eduardo Camavinga, and Arda Guler.
In the ongoing season, Vinicius has tallied six goals and four assists across 13 appearances for Los Blancos in various competitions.
