Spanish Real Madrid suffers from a severe shortage in its ranks, especially at the level of the defense line, which is absent due to injury from Dani Carvajal, Vasquez and David Alaba, and they were finally joined by Ferland Mendy, who was injured in the match against Atletico Madrid in the quarter-finals of the King’s Cup.
And the newspaper “Marca” revealed that the Austrian defender Alaba, after missing the last 4 matches of the team due to his thigh injury, fell again with an injury in the same place and needed at least 3 more weeks, which means his absence from the Real Sociedad match in the Spanish League “La Liga”. Also, his absence from the first leg match in the King’s Cup semi-finals in the first week of next February, as well as the Liverpool match in the first leg of the 16th round of the European Champions League “Champions League” on February 21.
And there are no longer defenders ready to play except Militao and Rodigero Nacho, and with them two defenders who usually go to the “bench” and play only rarely, namely Jesus Vallejo and Alvaro Odriozola, which puts Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti in trouble before entering into official engagements in the short term, which appeared during the match. Atletico Madrid last, where he had to involve French midfielder Eduardo Camavinga in the left-back position, after Mendy left with an injury.
The matter did not stop at the defense line, but extended to midfielder Aurelien Choameni, who had not participated in three matches due to injury, and whose level had declined before that since his return to the team after the end of the last World Cup in Qatar. The offensive line witnesses various injuries, including the injury of the Belgian Eden Hazard since he came from the World Cup, although Ancelotti rarely puts him into his accounts, in addition to the new injury suffered by the Brazilian winger Rodrigo in Atletico’s last match in the King’s Cup, after he scored the return goal in the result. 1-1, after which Real won 3-1 after losing 1-0.
Marca concluded its report by saying that all these unfavorable conditions represent a headache for Ancelotti and make it more difficult for him to prepare for the appropriate squad in the upcoming matches during the month of February.
