Real Madrid could lose Rüdiger and Vazquez after El Clasico
Yesterday, Real Madrid suffered a painful 4-0 defeat to Barcelona in the season’s first El Clásico.
Beyond the disappointing scoreline, Los Blancos may now face the added blow of losing two players due to injuries sustained during the match.
Details: According to Football-Espana, Antonio Rüdiger and Lucas Vázquez are both experiencing muscle issues following the game.
Both players reported discomfort, though Vázquez's condition is reportedly more severe. Next week, Vázquez and Rüdiger will undergo medical evaluations at Real Madrid's training center.
