Throughout the current season, Real Madrid has been plagued by injuries, and today, the squad’s situation has become even more critical.
Details: According to El Chiringuito, Real Madrid center-back David Alaba has suffered another injury.
The exact diagnosis has not been disclosed, but it is reported to be a muscle injury that will sideline him for 2-3 weeks.
This means that Carlo Ancelotti now has only one fully fit central defender—youngster Raúl Asencio. Antonio Rüdiger and Éder Militão are also unavailable due to injuries.
On February 8, Real Madrid faces Atlético in the derby, followed by a Champions League clash against Manchester City on February 11.
Reminder: Alaba previously missed over a year due to a cruciate ligament rupture.
