Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior Injured and Carvajal Faces ACL Surgery

Real Madrid has confirmed that Brazilian superstar Vinicius Junior suffered a cervical injury during their victory over Villarreal at the Santiago Bernabeu. The forward scored a spectacular goal from 25 yards but was forced off the field in the second half.

 

The club's statement revealed that Vinicius will be closely monitored and his participation in upcoming international matches with Brazil remains uncertain.

 

Unfortunately, Vinicius' injury was not the only setback for Real Madrid. Dani Carvajal, the team's right-back, suffered an ACL rupture during a challenge with Yeremy Pino. Carvajal will require surgery and is expected to be sidelined for several months.

 

In an Instagram post, Carvajal expressed his disappointment but vowed to return stronger. He thanked his supporters for their messages of support.
