In the 15th round of La Liga, Real Madrid suffered another setback as they lost their starting centre-back against Celta.
Details: Real defender Éder Militão sustained a serious injury in the 24th minute and was unable to continue. Antonio Rüdiger came on to replace him.
The recovery timeline remains unknown, but the situation looks very serious, as the player was unable to leave the pitch on his own.
This marks the second defensive injury for Madrid in as many matches—last round against Athletic Bilbao, Trent Alexander-Arnold also picked up a knock.
It's worth noting that the Brazilian defender has made eighteen appearances for Real this season, contributing one goal and one assist.
Reminder: Real are keeping tabs on Lille's 18-year-old prodigy Bouaddi.
